BP’s Rotterdam Refinery Could Face Strike Action Over Wages

REFINING

Workers at the BP oil refinery in Rotterdam are threatening to strike if their pay demands are not met by noon on 14 November, fuelling concerns about a potential diesel shortage next month.

  • The BP refinery in Rotterdam processes around 400kb/d of oil and is an important supplier of diesel to Northern Europe.
  • Union members, accounting for 440 of the 730 workers at the refinery, have been demanding a 6% salary increase by 1 January, while BP has offered 5% and a one-time payment of €4,000 in its last proposal.
  • "If we don't receive a reaction from BP about our ultimatum and our demands, then we will proceed to action," said spokesman Jaap Bosma of the CNV union in an interview.
