Estonia -Dockers picket port of Muuga -September 10, 2015

Dockers at Muuga port will be putting up picket lines demanding the recognition of their shop steward. Members of the Estonian Independent Seamens Union (EMSA), representing 62% of the workers, elected a shop steward to represent them in negotiations with management. However, the Muuga port management has refused to recognise the steward. Workers have announced they will be picketing the company’s Tallinn headquarters demanding their voice be heard.
