Polonia - Union activists replaced by non-union labour

The Deepwater Container Terminal (DCT) in Gdansk (Poland’s largest container terminal) did not renew the employment contracts of trade union activists employed on temporary contracts, replacing them with new staff, from 25 May 2015. Until the workers became involved in union activities, the employer had been happy to extend their fixed-term contracts. The National Labour Inspectorate in Gdańsk has filed a case against DCT management with the Prosecutor’s Office, accusing them of obstructing the exercise of trade union activities.
