The Strike Is Still In Force
In view of the ongoing developing situation and different communications and instructions being issued by Sanitary Authorities of the Argentine Government we have chosen to send a consolidated daily report at the closing of working hours with an update of the day’s news.
National Holidays: December 31st noon and January 01st 2021.
Strikes in Argentina: The strike is still in force. Over the Christmas weekend there were few negotiations. At the time of writing there seems to be little animus to solve things before the beginning of 2021. This attitude is prevalent on both sides, unions and management. These are grain loading berths. The berths where meals and oils are loaded are shut down by strike.
