DP World has reached an in-principle four-year agreement with the Maritime Union of Australia, which marks the end of all industrial action at Australian ports.
This agreement was facilitated by the Fair Work Commission and promises stability and improved operations for the logistics and shipping sectors.
The agreement replaces the previous contract that expired in September 2023. It includes key provisions aimed at ensuring fair compensation, enhanced safety measures, effective fatigue management, along with guarantees of job security and work-life balance for employees.
Executive Vice President at DP World Oceania, Nicolaj Noes, said that he was satisfied with the outcome.
“This agreement is a testament to our commitment to our workforce and to providing uninterrupted services to our customers,” Mr Noes said.
“We are now focused on moving forward, restoring the supply chain operations, and working collaboratively with our employees to rebuild confidence among our customers and make a positive impact on the national economy.”
