The Malta Dockers Union (MDU) has accused the GWU leadership of “shameful and irresponsible” behaviour aimed at dividing its membership.
The MDU said attacks and rumours being spread by the GWU were aimed at disrupting talks currently in progress between the MDU and the Malta Freeport management. The talks are aimed at securing a new agreement with better conditions for the workers as the freeport goes through an investment phase.
The MDU said it was consulting the workers on whether they would like to see a fourth shift introduced.
