- Protecting conditions of workers in the shipping industry
Description
Promoting social and economic progress in the maritime industry involves implementing policies and initiatives that enhance workforce skills, ensure fair labor practices, and foster inclusive economic growth. This strategy addresses issues such as unsafe working conditions, limited career opportunities, and regional economic disparities by supporting education, technological innovation, and equitable employment. Practical actions include investing in training, improving regulatory frameworks, and encouraging collaboration between stakeholders to create sustainable, resilient, and prosperous maritime communities.
Implementation
ILO has a long-term concern to promote progress in the maritime industry (including shipping, fishing, ports, inland water transport), especially as regards the working and living conditions of workers and seamen.
