POS port operations disrupted by worker walkout.

As of Thursday morning, operations at the Port of Port of Spain remained limited due to an alleged worker walkout. On Wednesday, the port issued a statement citing a lack of a “full complement of workers,” impacting services. Workers reportedly walked out over stalled wage negotiations and health and safety concerns. In an update, Port CEO Robert Ramsubhag confirmed no changes by 7 p.m. Wednesday, with limited operations still in effect. Areas affected include vessel operations and West Gate services for full and empty container handling. However there were no disruptions on the inter-island sea bridge. The port continues to experience disruptions due to the unavailability of the full workforce.
