The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. It is considered a model of strong and effective cooperation between seafarers and the global shipping industry. Since its adoption, the Convention has helped establish a global framework for decent work and living conditions at sea and create fairer competition across the maritime sector.
But as the shipping industry continues to face unprecedented pressures, such as pandemics, geopolitical conflicts and disruptions to global trade routes, implementing the MLC has become more crucial than ever.
