It Was Confirmed Through a Video from the Autonomous Truck Drivers Over the Weekend (15) That the Entire Port of Santos Will Stop on Monday (17).

Autonomous truck drivers stated in a video: “Everything will stop for 24 hours this coming Monday in favor of the freight table, diesel, and other adjustments in the category.” The message was published on this day 17 by the category to pressure authorities to meet demands that mostly relate to work costs.

Information Contained in the Video from the Autonomous Truck Drivers

In the video that was sent, Alexsandro Viviani – president of the Union of Autonomous Road Workers (Sindicam), explains the real reason behind this stoppage that is alarming the population. The real reason: Increase in the freight table, fuel without ICMS, loss of jobs at the Port of Santos and much more. Given these facts mentioned by the autonomous truck drivers, Alexsandro Viviani – president of the Union of Autonomous Road Workers spoke out saying:

“Brasília unfortunately has projects that are taking jobs away from port workers. They have a project that will eliminate 8,000 jobs at the Port of Santos”.

Support from One of the Largest Confederations

The autonomous truck drivers received full support from the National Confederation of Workers in Transport and Logistics (CNTTL) which is directly linked to CUT. One of the autonomous truck drivers, Wallace Landim, known as “Chorão” also spoke out demanding what was said last year when the category was the target of political interests and there were several promises of improvements in the Port of Santos Region.

Events Repeating Due to Broken Promises

What is happening due to the truck drivers’ promise of a total blockade at the Port of Santos also occurred last year – specifically in June with the blockade of a terminal in Guarujá, all due to unfulfilled promises and increases in the freight table.
