The port workers' union expects President William Ruto to introduce reforms in the labour movement that will end perennial strikes to push for better salaries and terms of service.

Dock Workers Union (DWU) General Secretary Mr Simon Sang said Wednesday they are hopeful the new Head of State will end the adversarial relationship between unions and employers in the country.
