IBritish Columbia Maritime Employers Association (BCMEA) iqinisekise ukuba ifumene isaziso esibhaliweyo sogwayimbo lweeyure ezingama-72.

Uqhankqalazo lucwangciselwe ukuqalisa ngentsimbi yesi-8:00 AM ngexesha lasekuhlaleni nge-1 kaJulayi, 2023, kumazibuko onxweme olusentshona eCanada. Oku kuthetha ukuba uninzi lwamazibuko kunxweme olusentshona lwaseKhanada luya kuba nokuphazamiseka.

Amazibuko amakhulu achaphazelekayo abandakanya amasango amabini amakhulu, iPort of Vancouver kunye nePort of Prince Rupert, lelona zibuko likhulu nelesithathu eCanada, ngokulandelelanayo. La mazibuko asebenza njengamasango aphambili e-Asia.

Kuxelwe ukuba malunga ne-90% yorhwebo lwaseKhanada ludlula kwiPort of Vancouver, kwaye malunga ne-15% ye-US yokungenisa kunye nokuthumela ngaphandle iimpahla zithuthwa ngezibuko ngonyaka.

Amazibuko onxweme olusentshona eCanada aphatha iimpahla ezixabisa phantse iibhiliyoni ezingama-225 zeedola ngonyaka. Izinto ezithuthiweyo ziquka uluhlu olubanzi lwempahla yabathengi, ukusuka kwimpahla ukuya kwiimveliso zombane kunye nempahla yasekhaya.

Uqhankqalazo olunokubakho luye lwaphakamisa inkxalabo kunye namaxhala malunga nefuthe kwikhonkco lonikezelo lweCanada kunye nokuhamba kwempahla yasekhaya neyehlabathi. Inkulumbuso yaseBritish Columbia uDavid Eby uvakalise inkxalabo yakhe enzulu malunga neziphumo ezinokuthi zibe kho zoqhankqalazo kumazibuko abo. Ukwathe iphondo belijongene neendleko ezinyukayo ngalo lonke ixesha lobhubhani ngenxa yokunyuka kwamaxabiso kunye nemiba yobonelelo, kwaye uqhankqalazo lunganyusa iindleko, abahlali bangakwaziyo ukuzifikelela.

Nangona kunjalo, ngokwemithetho yabasebenzi baseKhanada, ukuthunyelwa kweenkozo akufanele kuchaphazeleke lugwayimbo. I-BCMEA ikwakhankanye ukuba izakuqhuba nokubonelela ngeenkonzo zokuhamba ngeenqanawa. Oku kuthetha ukuba ugwayimbo luya kujolisa ikakhulu kwiinqanawe zekhonteyina.
Unobangela wolu qhankqalazo kukuba omabini amaqela akakwazanga ukufikelela kwisivumelwano esitsha

Ukusukela ngoFebruwari walo nyaka, kukho inkqubo eqhubekayo yokuxoxisana ngokukhululekileyo phakathi kwe-ILWU Canada kunye neBritish Columbia Maritime Employers Association (BCMEA) kumzamo wokuhlaziya isivumelwano esihlangeneyo soshishino esiphelelwe ngoMatshi 31, 2023. Nangona kunjalo, ukususela ekupheleni kwesivumelwano, amaqela amabini akakwazanga ukufikelela kwisivumelwano esitsha.

Ngaphambi koku, omabini amaqela ebekwixesha lokuphola, elaphela nge-21 kaJuni. Ngeli xesha, amalungu alo mbutho avotele ngama-99.24% exhasa ugwayimbo olucwangciselwe le nyanga.

Uthethathethwano lwangaphambili lubandakanya izivumelwano ezibini ezihlangeneyo zaselunxwemeni, esinye naBemi baseLongshore kunye nesinye ne-Local 514 Ship&Dock Foremen, emele abasebenzi basedokhini abangaphezu kwama-7,400 kunye nabaphathi kumazibuko onxweme lwaseCanada. Ezi zivumelwano zibandakanya iinkalo ezahlukeneyo ezifana nemivuzo, izibonelelo, iiyure zokusebenza, neemeko zengqesho.

I-BCMEA imele abaqeshi abangama-49 becandelo labucala labucala kunye nabasebenzi eBritish Columbia.

Ukuphendula kwisaziso soqhankqalazo, uMphathiswa wezaBasebenzi waseKhanada uSeamus O'Regan kunye noMphathiswa wezoThutho u-Omar Alghabra bakhuphe ingxelo ehlangeneyo begxininisa ukubaluleka kokufikelela kwisivumelwano ngothethwano.

“Sikhuthaza ngamandla onke amaqela ukuba abuyele kwitheyibhile yeengxoxo kwaye asebenze kunye ekufikeleleni kwisivumelwano. Yeyona nto ibalulekileyo ngoku, ”ifundeke ingxelo edibeneyo.

Ukusukela nge-28 kaMatshi ka-2023, i-BCMEA kunye ne-ILWU yaseKhanada bezibandakanya kwiinzame zolamlo kunye noxolelwaniso emva kokufumana isaziso sengxabano esingeniswe yi-ILWU Canada.

I-BCMEA ibambelele ekubeni iveze izindululo ezinyanisekileyo kwaye izimisele ukwenza inkqubela ekufikeleleni kwisivumelwano esinobulungisa. Ngaphandle kwesaziso soqhankqalazo, i-BCMEA ivakalisa ukuzimisela kwayo ukuqhubeka uthethathethwano ngenkqubo yolamlo lomanyano ukuze kufumaneke isivumelwano esilungeleleneyo esiqinisekisa uzinzo lwezibuko kunye nokuhamba okungaphazamisekiyo kwempahla kubantu baseCanada.

Kwelinye icala, i-ILWU Canada ithe bafuna isivumelwano esifanelekileyo ukuze bafezekise iinjongo zabo, ezibandakanya ukuthintela ukhukuliseko lwemisebenzi ngokukhutshwa, ukukhusela abasebenza emadokisini kwimpembelelo ye-automation ye-port, kunye nokubakhusela kwiziphumo zokunyuka kwamaxabiso aphezulu kunye nokunyuka kokuphila. iindleko.

Umbutho uqaqambisa igalelo labasebenzi basezidokhweni ngexesha lo bhubhani kwaye uvakalisa ukuphoxeka ngeemfuno zemvume ze-BCMEA. "I-BCMEA kunye nabaqeshi abangamalungu bayo bala ukuxoxisana kwimiba ephambili," i-ILWU Canada yatsho kwingxelo yabo.

Lo mbutho uhlaba ikhwelo kuBCMEA ukuba iyiyeke yonke iminyinyiva kwaye izibandakanye kuthethathethwano lokwenene lokusombulula le ngxabano ngelixa ihlonipha amalungelo kunye nemiqathango yabasebenzi basezikhunjini.

Ngaphaya koko, kwiiveki nje ezimbalwa phambi koqhankqalazo lwakutsha nje, i-ILWU kuNxweme oluseNtshona lwase-US ifikelele kwisivumelwano sokuqala sekhontrakthi entsha yabasebenzi nabaqhubi bezikhululo zezibuko abamelwe yi-Pacific Maritime Association, ephela kwisithuba sonyaka sothethathethwano. Oku kube neempembelelo ezibalulekileyo kubasebenzi betheminali yezibuko.

UPhilip Davies, intloko yeDavies Transportation Consulting Inc., inkampani yezoqoqosho kwezothutho eVancouver, wathi izivumelwano phakathi kwabaqeshi baselwandle nabasebenzi basezibukweni zidla ngokuba zizivumelwano zexesha elide ezibandakanya “uthethathethwano olunzima.”

UDavies ubalule ukuba, ukuba uthethathethwano aluphumelelanga, imanyano inakho iindlela ezininzi ngaphandle kokubhenela kugwayimbo olugcweleyo lokuphazamisa ukusebenza kwamazibuko. "Banokuphazamisa ukusebenza kwe-terminal, okanye bangakwazi ukubonelela ngomsebenzi owaneleyo wokutshintsha."

“Ewe, impendulo yomqeshi isenokuba kukuvala imanyano ngaphandle nokuvala i-terminal, nokuba yeyiphi na enokwenzeka.”

Umhlalutyi wezorhwebo uvakalise ukuba ugwayimbo olunokubakho alunakuba nempembelelo ebalulekileyo kuphela kuqoqosho lwaseKhanada kodwa lunokuba neziphumo ezibi kuqoqosho lwehlabathi.
