Then union members will get additional $4-per-hour raises every year during the life of the six-year tentative deal. The union had been willing to consider the $4-an-hour deal before the strike, union boss Harold Daggett said on the picket line outside the Port of New York and New Jersey early Tuesday, soon after the start of the strike. Thursday’s deal likely is the end of the strike, but it doesn’t close the door on a new strike in the future. Should the members vote against the deal, the strike might start once again. But union members voted nearly unanimously to reject it and have remained on strike since September 13.

Read previewA major maritime workers strike is looming, and it could mean a shutdown of key goods — from cars to food — across the East and Gulf Coasts. AdvertisementA strike would have widespread implications across the US, with significant shipment delays that could set off a chain reaction of disruptions. Advertisement"We are coordinating with partners across the supply chain to prepare for any potential impacts," Steve Burns, a PANYNJ spokesperson, told BI. She referred to estimates from Sea-Intelligence, which predicted that a strike would prevent 74,000 shipping containers from being unloaded each day. "Throughout the pandemic, Longshore workers never took a day off," ILA Executive Vice President Dennis Daggett said on September 20.

The new issue for the global supply chain comes amid a rise in global demand, with shipments up 13% year-over-year in June. Air freight supply has increased, but only by 3% year-on-year, already causing higher costs for shippers due to the limited capacity, according to Xeneta. Thousands of flights were grounded or delayed at the world's largest air freight hubs in Europe, Asia and North America. "This is a reminder of how vulnerable our ocean and air supply chains are to IT failure." Ports, freight rails, report some issues, but normal operationsMost rails and ports were faring better after some early morning disruptions.

Containers sit at the GCT New York container terminal on Staten Island on October 20, 2022, in New York City. The Port of Long Beach moved 9.13 million TEUs last year. "These 9.5 million TEUs is more than 27% of 2019 levels," said Bethann Rooney, port director of the Port of New York and New Jersey. "This is not sustainable if we are going to handle 14 million TEUs in the not too distant future," she said. If they have stability on the West Coast, it doesn't really make sense to spend the extra two weeks crossing to go to the East Coast.
