The Swedish paper workers' union, Pappers, has enforced a strike in six paper mills in Sweden, including the SCA Containerboard mill in Munksund.
In a recent press release, SCA stated that they are not at the moment in the position to foresee the length of the strike as it is entirely depending on the outcome of the collective contract negotiations.
The union has informed that whenever an agreement cannot be found in the next 10 days, an additional six mills will be affected by a strike, including the SCA Containerboard mill in Obbola.
SCA also stated that the company must also direct the attention to the fact that an overtime ban is enforced in the whole paper industry in Sweden, meaning that all paper mills can suffer of production stops at any moment.
