Amsterdam, 30 August 1997
The 2 September 1997 three hundred-fifteen (315) men will be sacked.
The 2 September 1997 the Arbeidspool is bankrupt.
The cause is casualisation.
It was impossible to compete any longer with employment agencies who come in the harbour with call-up workers, who are of course without rights and are working under bad labour-conditions.
More details about the coming actions follow on Monday 1-9-1997.
Groetjes, Ron Wiechels, Secretary of Amsterdam dockers' Arbeidspool
