Serious disruptions in French ports
The French trade union CGT Ports and Docks has announced a strike which will affect all major French seaports during several days in June.
❌ Four-hour work stoppage between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM (the exact times may vary depending on the port): June 4, 6, 10, 12, 14, 18, 20, 24, 26 and 28.
❌ 24 work stoppage: June 13, 21 and 25.
❌ Dead port day on June 7 (access to port areas/terminals will be blocked).
Port workers are protesting against the government’s pension reform, which would allow them to retire two years earlier. If the workers do not reach an agreement with the government, they intend to continue their protest in July, which are likely to disrupt freight traffic in French seaports.
