Safety concerns emerge after container collapse at COSCO’s Piraeus Port

Several containers collapsed at the COSCO-owned port of Piraeus on October 5, prompting port workers to voice their deep concerns about safety issues.

The port workers’ union stressed that if the incident had occurred moments earlier or later, lives could have been lost. Despite the dangers, COSCO continues to prioritize profits over worker safety, according to the union.

Greek Workers demand action for better safety measures, highlighting dockworkers on the United States East Coast, who successfully fought for better conditions and pay.
