                    [Summary] => Labor leaders warned yesterday of possible massive job losses with the impending implementation of 20 percent rollback in cargo handling and stevedoring fees. 


Five organizations of port workers led by the Associated Workers Union (AWU) bonded together to oppose moves to recall port charges which they said would result in the displacement of 300,000 workers.


AWU executive vice president Roberto Oca III said hundreds of port workers have already lost their jobs since December and the number is expected to rise tremendously if port charges are drastically reduced.
