The nine days of stoppages across dozens of Spanish ports would take place on alternate days, meaning disruptions will continue for three weeks.
Last week, dockers called off a three-day strike after the government said it would delay reforms on hold talks, reported the El Pais newspaper.
But when the government said it would stick with its port reform plans, the Coordinadora Estatal de Trabajadores del Mar (CETM) union called for a bigger strike. Reuters could not reach CETM for comment.
The proposals would allow companies operating in ports to hire staff who do not belong to unions, a move unpopular with union members, but brings Spain in line with European Union regulations.
The nine days of stoppages across dozens of Spanish ports would take place on alternate days, meaning disruptions could drag on for three weeks between March 6 and March 24, El Pais said.
