Pacific regional maritime labour standards promotion and port worker protection programme

The proposed programme addresses issues of International Labour Standards and decent work promotion, as well as protection for maritime workers. It builds on past ILO projects to promote ILS ratification and implementation and specifically builds on the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) gap analyses recently carried out. It also seeks to implement the ILO report on establishment of a regional seafarers' identity documents (SIDs) issuance system.

Concept note | 28 January 2010
The proposed project contributes to the creation of decent employment opportunities for seafarers and port workers through 3 main areas of activity: 1) activities to promote MLC ratification and full implementation; 2) activities to promote C.185 ratification and full implementation, including the establishment of a regional SIDs issuance system; and 3) activities to promote port worker productivity and protection.
