NEWS UPDATED March 27, 2024.
Finnish Transport Workers’ Union AKT will continue striking in all the Finnish ports until 7.4.2024, which includes the stevedoring activities. The strikes will cover all port operations in Finnish ports, including unloading, loading, receipt, and release of units.
The effects of the strike on sea and land freight.
Only modules with driver are allowed on the ships, therefore the strike will especially affect road transport and reduce the transport capacity to / from Finland by sea.
Political labor battles cause transport delays.
CHS's warehouses are operating normally, but due to the port strike, there may be possible delays in the loads arriving and leaving the warehouses.
We are doing everything we can to minimize the effects of the industrial action on our customers' supply chains, but when strikes are on, shipping delays and disruptions cannot be avoided. We always try to inform our customers about changes as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the situation.
If you need more information, please contact your Scanlink contact person. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the situation.
