LONGSHORE: International Container Terminal Services Inc. reported that it has scored another victory against the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) that has been allegedly disrupting operations of ICTSI Oregon.
In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, ICTSI said the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has ordered the ILWU, ILWU Local 8, and ILWU Local 40 to cease and desist from a variety of activities at Terminal 6 in Portland that violate federal labor laws.
These include engaging in slowdowns and work stoppages, and using threats and coercion to disrupt the operations of ICTSI Oregon, Inc. which operates Terminal 6.
“We are gratified by the NLRB’s ruling, which rejected all of the ILWU’s legal arguments. Hopefully, this decision will bring us one step closer to ending the ILWU’s orchestrated and illegal campaign to undermine the success of Terminal 6 and to convincing the shipping companies to return to the Port of Portland,” said ICTSI Oregon chief executive Elvis Ganda.
