The Maritime Union has withdrawn its 24 hour strike notice for January 31.
Ports of Auckland in turn has agreed to hold a stop work meeting.
The four hour meeting with the union has been scheduled for January 31.
The port will be fully operational during the meeting with non-union staff operating the port.
The port and the union are embroiled in a long-running, bitter dispute over the port's move to contract out workers after negotiations over a new collective agreement failed.
Union president Garry Parsloe earlier said union officials would talk with members about the port's proposal and the implications of possible redundancies.
Parsloe said the port has been bullying people and has been very dictatorial.
