2021 was considered a rebound year in terms of tonnage and
man hours. Almost all USMX member Ports from Maine to
Texas saw a return to pre-pandemic levels, many seeing an
unprecedented surge in cargo. Overall tonnage was up 10%
compared to Contract Year Ending 2020, marking a full
recovery from the 2020 impacts of COVID.
Manhours are inclusive of all MILA-eligible ILA manhours, and
thus each mode of cargo experienced a different rate of
rebound from from the prior year . Non-container volume
finally began to return to normal during Contract Year Ending
2021, with the hardest hit sector, Cruise, starting back up.
Overall Manhours experienced an increase of 13% year
over year.
