The CFMMEU-MUA (Maritime Union of Australia) division and DP World have been actively engaged in negotiations facilitated by the Fair Work Commission. These discussions aim to reach a mutual understanding; however, significant differences persist despite some progress.
Since October 6, rolling stop-work bans have affected DP World’s operations, consequently impacting the broader Australian supply chain. The CFMMEU-MUA division has announced a series of work bans and stoppages scheduled to take place from Monday, December 11, to Saturday, December 23, with potential withdrawals on specific dates during local-level discussions.
