Accidents involving ships often result in deaths, loss of ships and damage to the marine environment, and they are a fact of modern times. Such accidents can be traced in part to the growth and changing nature of seaborne commerce. Equally significant, however, are the changes in labour conditions for seafarers and the problem of sub-standard ships.;These guidelines are intended to assist those concerned with labour and social conditions on board ship, to help ensure that the relevant international labour standards are complied with, and to minimize the risk of accidents caused by not fulfilling these standards.
The texts of the Guidelines for flag State inspections under the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 and Guidelines for port State control officers carrying out inspections under the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 are to be submitted to the 303rd Session (November 2008) of the ILO Governing Body which is expected to take a decision on its publication.
This volume provides a detailed legal analysis of the fourth pillar of the international maritime regulatory regime, the comprehensive Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, and its provisions to achieve decent work for seafarers and a level playing field for shipowners.
The guidelines contained in this book are an important international resource for implementing port State responsibilities under the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC). They were adopted by the ILO in September 2008 together with Guidelines for flag State inspections under the MLC, 2006.
