We would like to inform you of the strike that took place at Hutchinson Port Delta II in Rotterdam, which started on Sunday, 9 February. The strike action has led to a temporary suspension of operations at the terminal and is related to negotiations for a new Collective Labour Agreement. While operations have now resumed as of 10 February, the terminal is still experiencing a slowdown of operations for an undetermined period. As such, our teams must put certain contingencies in place as we continue to monitor the situation surrounding labour negotiations at the terminal.
Due to the strike action and slowdown of operations, there will be a reduced number of moves per hour conducted at the terminal for an unknown duration. Consequently, prolonging the time vessels are operated on and significantly disrupting their normal schedules. To minimize disruptions and protect overall reliability to your supply chains, contingent decisions will be made in the upcoming days and all customers whose cargo is impacted will receive specific information regarding detailed schedule changes and alternative options provided.
We thank you for your continuous understanding and regret any inconvenience caused. We will keep you informed of any potential changes and do our utmost to minimize the potential impact on your supply chains.
If you have questions or need more assistance, please contact your local customer service representatives.
