Strike threat in the transport sector in Finland
Negotiations on the collective agreements of the Finnish Transport Workers Union AKT continue today, February 13, 2023. Wage negotiations are also going on for truck drivers and terminal workers. If agreements cannot be reached, the entire Finnish transport industry is threatened with a large-scale strike, which, if implemented, will significantly affect the flow of freight traffic. Due to ongoing overtime ban at the Finnish ports, one ferry service between Germany and Finland has been cancelled today. Your road transport contact persons will provide more information about possible delays to shipments.
