Verdi is carrying out 48-hour warning strikes in the ports after union members rejected an employer offer of 5.1 percent over 18 months. The stoppages are weighing on already weaker throughput in Hamburg, where HHLA recorded a 7.3 percent decline in the first half of 2026. The dispute is exacerbating economic damage to the port economy and supply chains and is likely to boost terminal operators’ incentive to pursue further automation, which would weaken employees’ bargaining position in the long term. » Altro su welt.de

A 48‑hour warning strike has begun in Hamburg, involving employees at HHLA container terminals Altenwerder, Burchardkai and Tollerort. Verdi is demanding 8.2% more pay in the wage negotiations (at least €2.50 per hour) after rejecting the employers' offer of 5.1% backdated to 1 August. A demonstration is planned for Friday; HHLA shares were trading on Thursday almost at the previous day's level at about €21.60. » Altro su finanzen.net
