31 Jul 2015 / United States, all ports
According to reports, West Coast shipping companies and dockworkers are close to reaching a contract agreement after eight months of negotiations, potentially avoiding a damaging strike. The Pacific Maritime Association and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union are said to have reached tentative agreement on maintaining truck chassis at 29 West Coast ports. Negotiations between the two sides have been overseen by a federal mediator since earlier this month. In August, the two sides announced a deal on health-care costs, without disclosing details. Slowdowns continue at the ports, however. Backups and delays have been experienced as union workers slowed productivity.
