Maritime Union vows national action to save Napier jobs
The Maritime Union is gearing up for national and international action to protect secure local jobs at the Port of Napier.
Members of the Maritime Union employed at Hawkes Bay Stevedoring Services have been threatened with job losses after a container stevedoring contract was awarded to Mount Maunganui based stevedore ISO.
Maritime Union General Secretary Trevor Hanson says the decision by the port company has already generated a major backlash, with a national meeting of the Union today calling for solidarity action with the Napier workers.
