The union Verdi has called for 24-hour warning strikes at six German seaports in light of ongoing tariff negotiations with the employers' association ZDS. The strikes are a response to the employers' latest offer, which was rejected by the workers.

According to reports, the warning strikes in the affected ports will begin immediately, while negotiations are still underway. The union is demanding better wages for dockworkers but remains engaged in negotiations to reach an agreement.
