Protected Industrial Action Update – 9 November
Protected Industrial Action Update – 9 November
Svitzer Australia is experiencing a significant escalation in protected industrial action across Australia’s major ports with widespread stoppages scheduled from tomorrow (10 November) through to Tuesday (15 November).
The new protected industrial action contains more than 80 hours of work stoppages across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. This is in addition to the work stoppages in WA and 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 – 9 November

Western Australia
The actions above are in addition to stop work periods in WA from tomorrow in Albany, Fremantle, Kwinana and Geraldton as advised in our last stakeholder update.
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.
Nb. Summary of action below – searchable table by Port with detail of impact at bottom of this post
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.
