Les transporteurs routiers anversois tirent la sonnette d'alarme Les transporteurs routiers en ont ras-le-bal d'être le bouc-émissaire, alors que les poids lourds seront toujours nécessaires pour pouvoir continuer à vivre dans un Etat-providence. Ils demandent davantage de concertation avec et de bonne volonté de la part des autorités et des donneurs d'ordres afin de résoudre les problèmes existants. Au cours d'une conférence de presse à Anvers, ils ont critiqué les créneaux horaires trop limités, le Just-in-Time ("Just in Trouble"), la mauvaise organisation des travaux routiers et le manque de chauffeurs bien formés. Seatrade lance un service de retour sur l'Afrique du Sud Le 30 juin prochain, l'armement Seatrade, un des grands spécialistes des trafics reefer, assurera d'Anvers le premier départ d'un service de ligne régulier à destination de l'Afrique du Sud. Il s'agit d'un service de retour qui a recours aux navires reefer qui amènent des fruits dans le port scaldien. L'armement est coutumier de ce genre d'opérations au départ de l'Europe du Nord.

The vote, which is expected to be followed by Brisbane tomorrow and Fremantle next Tuesday, has endorsed the document which is now set for signing early next month. Prior to a vote being taken at the five and half hour meeting MUA’s national secretary, John Coombs, told his members they had no option but to endorse the deal. Wharfies feel need for speed Waterfront workers employed by Patrick in Sydney and Melbourne will have to maintain a productivity level of 20 lifts per hour if they are to qualify for incentive payments. The productivity requirements at the company’s facilities in Brisbane and Fremantle are slightly lower. The agreement between Patrick and the Maritime Union of Australia will introduce a productivity incentive scheme which will replace all existing agreements and arrangements, monetary or otherwise. The scheme will operate on a shift basis covering all shifts worked from the first on Saturday to the twilight one on Friday inclusive.
