OF CASUAL LONGSHORE HIRING PROGRAM
IN PORT OF PORTLAND
The Portland Joint Port Longshore Labor Relations Committee is
conducting a selection program for new casual longshore personnel
for the Port of Portland. A random drawing will be held to select

identified casuals in the port of Portland.
Individuals whose names are drawn at random must then satisfy
the following criteria in order to be considered further: Be at least
eighteen (18) years of age; pass the industry strength and agility

Identified casual workers occupy entry-level part-time positions
They are not eligible for and do not receive welfare (medical, dental
etc.) benefits, holiday pay, ILWU-PMA Pay Guarantee Plan benefits,
vacation pay, pension benefits, or any type of so-called “fringe
benefits” under the ILWU-PMA labor agreement or otherwise.
Please be further advised that w orking casuals as well as
applicants for longshore work have no guarantee or expectation
of any amount or type of longshore work or of any advancements
or promotions within the longshore industry. Working casuals and
applicants are further advised that the ILWU and PMA reserve the
right to change and even rescind this hiring program, dispatching

industry.
Applicants must request, in writing, that an interest card be mailed
to them. All interest cards must be completed in their entirety and
be received by mail no later than 5:00 PM, Monday, March 3,
2003, by the Portland Joint Port Labor Relations Committee to be
considered valid. A random drawing will be held on Friday, March

processi ng thereafter.
Direct all requests by mail as follows:
ILWU/PMA Portland JPLRC

Pacific Maritime Association
x
101 S.W. Main Street, Suite 330
Portland, Oregon 97204-3277
This will be an equal employment opportunity/affirmative action
selection program. Please also be advised that this hiring program
is being conducted in compliance with a voluntary affirmative
action plan under which approxim ately one half of the 52
selections will be designated for certain minority applicants to
address identified imbalances in the composition of the Identified
Casual workforce in the Port of Portland.
Please be further advised that any complaints concerning the hiring
process, including any claim regarding the non-selection of an
applicant, must be filed as a grievance with the Joint Port Labor
Relations Committee under Section 13.3 of the Pacific Coas^
Longshore and Clerks Agreement within ten (10) days of the
incident giving rise to the complaint. Failure to file a timely
grievance means that the complaint will be treated as invalid.
Please also note, however, that any grievance challenging the
adoption or use of the affirmative action plan will not be processed
or acted upon.
