Greater than 7,400 employees from the ILWU had walked off the job from July 1 till July 13 over points like port automation, exterior contracting and the rising price of residing. 

Port operations resumed on July 13 when a tentative settlement was reached. However on Tuesday, the contract caucus rejected the tentative deal.
