The Italian strike will begin at 00:00 this Friday, 18 October, and will last for 24 hours. It is expected to involve both public and private sector workers, including freight handlers, warehouse workers and truck drivers in the transport and logistics sector.
This is expected to have a significant impact on the national logistics chain. Delays in deliveries, blockages at terminals and difficulties in coordinating logistics operations are expected. However, there are currently no details on possible traffic disruptions. We will keep you informed about these developments.
Reasons for the strike
The strikers want to express their opposition to the traffic regulations under consideration, which will increase penalties for drivers, and to the abolition of employee membership in cooperatives in the logistics sector. They are also demanding a 300 euro pay rise for all workers in the transport and logistics sector.
