Protected Industrial Action Update – 10 November

Protected Industrial Action Update – 10 November

Svitzer Australia has received further notices of protected industrial action affecting Sydney, Port Kembla and South Australia (Adelaide & Port Pirie).

The new protected industrial action contains work stoppages at these ports. This is in addition to the ongoing bans in ports across the country.

A summary of the new actions by the three maritime unions is provided below. All times provided are local time.

Summary of Protected Industrial Action – 10 November

Sydney

  • 12 hours of overlapping work stoppages by members of the maritime unions starting from 6pm Tuesday 15 November until 6am Wednesday 16 November.

Port Kembla

  • 8 hours of overlapping work stoppages by maritime union members from midnight (00:01) Wednesday 16 November until 8am Wednesday 16 November.

Adelaide and Port Pirie

  • A 4 hour work stoppage from midday until 4pm on Wednesday 16 November.

While Svitzer is managing the protected industrial action as best as possible, customers should plan for significant disruption to services, as union action continues to escalate.

Thank you for your ongoing patience.

We appreciate that the nature and range of the actions can be complex to understand. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to your Svitzer point of contact should you have any questions or concerns.

Definition /  explanation of industrial actions

Ban on beginning a job that will take employees past the 12th hour of continuous duty:  Our crews work 12 hour shifts with some flexibility to go over 12 hours for a small amount of time such as 30 minutes as over time. This ban will remove that flexibility that each crew will only work 12 hours. If a job is scheduled that may bring them over 12 hours they will not start that job. This does not mean that we cannot provide 24 hour service. It means tugs need to be scheduled differently and our operations team will work closely with VTS teams to minimize any delays that may occur as a result of this ban. It is difficult to predict impact as it depends on the schedule in the port on the day.

Ban on continuous operation of vessel or vessels for a period in excess of 5 hours without a 30-minute rest break: Our crews take relevant meal/rest breaks flexibly to accommodate port shipping schedule. This ban removes that flexibility that each crew will take a 30 minute break if they have operated continuously for 5 hours. It means tugs need to be scheduled differently and our operations team will work closely with VTS teams to minimize any delays that may occur as a result of this ban. It is difficult to predict impact as it depends on the schedule in the port on the day.

Ban on performing recall and/or relief work by masters, engineers or deckhands: Bans on being recalled from leave and performing relief work. This effectively removes relief capacity at several ports and the ability to service operations should there be any absences, illness or leave.
