The ITF, together with @nautilusint and FNV, has submitted a formal request to the Court of Appeal in the Netherlands to reconsider and correct key preliminary considerations in its recent interim ruling concerning the Non-Seafarers’ Work Clause (NSWC)

The crew onboard the ZES Pilot, a Finnish-owned cargo ship, are abandoned in the Netherlands. They are owed thousands of euros in unpaid wages.
The ITF is supporting the crew and working with authorities to ensure that the crew are paid what they are owed.
🚨 on Monday we visited the ZES Pilot again — this time with @Merimieskirkko, who even helped the crew get groceries.
@ITFglobalunion, @Merimieskirkko & Rotterdam Port Welfare Committee stand by them — unlike @HydorAs, 🇫🇮 @Ulkoministerio & @FinEmbassyNL who still haven’t acted.
⚓️ Union Win! 🇱🇷
The Dock Workers Union of Liberia have won a historic new collective bargaining agreement after months of intense negotiations and short bursts of industrial action against their employer, APM Terminal.

🇳🇱 @FNVHavensMT (FNV) strike update! ⚓️
The biggest ever strike of lashers in the Netherlands is set to resume tomorrow if no agreement is reached on wage increases.
🇳🇱 @FNVHavensMT dockworkers in the Netherlands are striking today to protect the future of their work ✊
Dockworkers must perform port tasks, such as lashing.
TAKE ACTION NOW: Tell Slovenian Minister of Labour @LukaMesec to investigate & shut down the ISU–Lanibra sham and uphold trade union rights in Slovenia.
We're calling on Mesec to:
🔍 Investigate
⚖️ Deregister
✊ Defend workers' rights

⛴️ SHAM UNION: The International Seafarers’ Union (ISU) claims to be a seafarers’ union – but it enables seafarer exploitation. When seafarers are in crisis, ISU is nowhere to be found. Instead, genuine trade unions must step in to defend seafarers’ rights.
Expose ISU!
Serious accident on feeder vessel Arnarfell: seafarer severely injured during lashing operations on the night of April 7–8. Poor lighting, no fall protection, working at height. Safety must never be an afterthought. @ITFglobalunion@ETF_Europe@Samskip@SamskipIceland@SAMSKIPHF

Positieve ontwikkeling bij Hutchison Ports Delta II: garantie in zicht.
Na weken van onrust is er een doorbraak in het verstrekken van de overeengekomen garantie. Dit biedt @FNV Havens momenteel het vertrouwen dat de dienstverlening bij Delta II niet verstoord hoeft te worden.
Afspraak=afspraak!De onrust bij Hutch.Ports Delta II is niet veroorzaakt door werknemers. De situatie is te wijten aan het bedrijf zelf, dat zich niet houdt aan afspraken.Klanten met vragen zouden zich moeten richten tot Delta II met de vraag: Waar blijft de beloofde garantie?
📢 Actie in de Rotterdamse haven! Containerterminal Hutchison Ports Delta II op de Maasvlakte ligt sinds 05:00 uur volledig stil. Werknemers eisen dat het bedrijf de overgekomen cao-afspraken met FNV Havens nakomt. #GeenGarantieGeenDeal#FNVHavens@FNV

This is how it went:https://t.co/sBzLSX4qAJ
