Slogan of International Dockers' Action Day Announced

The International Dockworkers’ Council (IDC), International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) and European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF) are planning to organize activities on international dockers’ action day on July 7.

Slogan of International Dockers
According to MANA, Under the slogan “Defend Dockers Rights,” the Global Day of Union Action is an opportunity for port workers to call for improved health and safety in the workplace, an end to job deregulation, respect for bargaining rights and collective agreements, the need for universal labor standards in GNTs, the concerns over automation processes in terminals, and social justice.
The organizations said that the aim of the day is to raise awareness with the public about the contribution dockworkers make to the world economy, as well as the risks they face at work every day, and to highlight the growing attacks on working conditions in ports.
This action will display the resolve of these works to defend not only the security of their jobs, but also their working conditions, dignity, and collective bargaining power.
