Supra has called a national strike and is considering further action in defense of its wage demands.

Since Friday, TCP has stopped receiving trucks due to Supra’s action, which is now being extended to operators and terminals in the capital’s harbor in a second phase. The union is demanding payment for 13 guaranteed days of work, a demand that has drawn criticism from the Navigation Center, the main maritime port business association.

The year 2025 saw significant labor unrest at the port of Montevideo, a situation that is recurring amidst the ongoing wage council negotiations.
