The campaign comes as a result of consistent complaints by our OH&S Committees of the dangerous situations that wharfies expose themselves to when required to work on container tops when manually releasing twist-locks. The OH&S Committee have also raised concerns that some members are ignoring procedures when working in work-cages and not securing themselves effectively when required to leave a cage. This is not withstanding that the whole manual procedure is extremely cumbersome, does not conform to best practice procedure and is not very productive or efficient. 21 May 2003 [full story] Dock workers shut down European ports ITF mobilises dockers throughout Europe in campaign to stop shipowners bypassing stevedoring labour and employing crew or casuals to stevedore vessels 12 March 2003 [full story] Safety at Work 15 October 2002 [full story] More Stevedoring Campaigns...Port ServicesPort Services Campaigns - coming soon11 December 2002 [full story] More Port Services Campaigns...HydrocarbonsTrico takes ITF to courtTRICO Marine Services has launched legal action against the International Transport Workers' Federation, according to David Osler of Lloyds List 08 March 2002 [full story] More Hydrocarbon Campaigns...DivingDiving Campaigns - coming soon11 December 2002 [full story] More Diving Campaigns...Public Campaigns: You can view MUA's publicly available campaign information in a variety of ways.
