SHIPPING giant AP Moller-Maersk has urged customers to pick up their laden containers and return the empty ones at the US East and Gulf Coast ports before Jan. 15 to mitigate potential disruptions at the terminals on account of a strike.
"The conditional agreement on wages is set to expire on Jan. 15. If no agreement is reached by that date, a coast-wide strike on Jan. 16 is possible," according to an advisory on Maersk's website.
