The strike brought together members of different unions and non-unionised staff. The suspension of the strike was announced after a general meeting held by strikers.

The strikers won bonus pay for handling hazardous materials and some undisclosed improvements in working conditions. They also won the right to free medical care for themselves and their families, including operations.
