Governments are invited to get ready for the entry into force of the 2022 amendments to the MLC, 2006 related to obligation to investigate, record and report to the ILO all deaths of seafarers. This important amendment aims at addressing some of the gaps identified in relation to the painful situation faced by seafarers during the COVID-19 pandemic. https://lnkd.in/gJhP4Df9

It was a privilege to discuss MLC, 2006 issues with such a talented and motivated group of students. Thank you Prof. Lia Athanassiou!
Mrs B. Vacotto, ILO, lecturing for the first time at the Law Faculty of Athens The postgraduate students of the Athens LLM of Maritime Law had the great privilege to attend and benefit from the outstanding lecture of Mrs. Beatriz Vacotto (Head of the Maritime Unit in the International Labour Standards Department, ILO), delivered on March 26th and relating to the functioning of the Organization, the seafarers’ rights, as well as the interpretation and the challenges of the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC). In an interactive context, the participants, divided in “Groups” of Shipowners, Seafarers and Governments, debated on issues relating to maximum period of service, substantial equivalencies, 2022 amendments, and the impact of the pandemic and the war. What an enriching experience, from any point of view, so much appreciated by all; Looking very much forward to welcoming her again!

https://lnkd.in/esf2EFbD During the COVID-19 pandemic, we heard numerous calls to recognize seafarers as key workers, including by the UN General Assembly, the IMO and the ILO. As a draft instrument on pandemics is being discussed at the World Health Organization, the ILO Director General, Mr. Houngbo, has called on Governments to dully reflect the need to ensure decent work for essential workers, including seafarers and other cross-border transport workers. Concrete urgent action is needed to make this a reality.
