One-Day Strike Cripples Finnish Harbor

Helsingin (Finland) Sanomat reported on February 3, 2010:

"The cranes at Vuosaari Harbour in the east of Helsinki stood motionless on Tuesday, as stevedores at the facility staged a one-day strike.

There were no pickets, as everyone knew that the action was on. Members of the head offices of Multi-Link were on hand to load some ships.

There were some stevedores at work in Vuosaari to make sure that essential goods, such as medicines and food, were not left out in the freezing weather.

Strike action also affected the harbours of Kotka, Naantali, Uusikaupunki, Turku, Hanko, and Kokkola.

Juha Mutru, managing director of the Finnish Port Operators Association, estimated that about half of goods traffic at Finnish harbours was at a standstill.

Mutru says that the strikes on Tuesday caused losses of tens of millions of euros in foreign trade."
