Product Description
The Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, as amended (MLC, 2006), entered into force
on 20 August 2013 and has been ratified by 112 countries, representing more than 96
per cent of the world gross tonnage of ships. Often called the “bill of rights” for
seafarers, it sets out seafarers’ rights to decent living and working conditions.
Governments, seafarers and shipowners all regard this Convention as a landmark
development for the world’s most globalized sector and support its full implementation
in law and in practice
