Victory for dockers in Liberia after titanic struggle for justice 07 May 2021 Press Release
Twenty-four dockworkers are today back at work after a struggle of epic proportions.
Members and leaders of ITF affiliate the Dock Workers’ Union of Liberia (DOWUL) were wrongly suspended by APM Terminals in Monrovia, the country’s capital.
Those wrongful suspensions set in motion more than seven months of struggle, hardship and stress for these brave and determined dockers.
The workers have been supported by unions in Liberia and the wider region, the ITF Dockers’ Section and, in the end, the government of the Republic of Liberia itself.
Canada’s Industrial Relations Board which ruled in 2020 that the Montréal dockers’ right to strike could not be restricted as their work did not amount to an essential service;
International Labour Standards which Canada is required to uphold as by virtue of its membership of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and having ratified ILO conventions 87 and 98; and
rulings by ILO’s Committee on Freedom of Association.
“Montreal’s dockers did the right thing. They bargained in good faith. Now it’s time for the Liberal government of Canada to do the right thing and scrap this toxic legislation,” said Crumlin.
