Within the framework of the European sectoral social dialogue committee for maritime transport, the recognized European social partners (ETF for employees and ECSA for employers) carried out a joint project to eradicate harassment and bullying practices in the workplace in the maritime industry.
Program. Whereas, in 2004, another project already tried to get rid of harassment and bullying at work, problems are still significant today, and they are detrimental to the sector’s attractiveness. This program had notably prepared the ground for the framework agreement on harassment and violence at work signed at cross-industry level in 2007 (see article No. 070377). Pointing to problems with the circulation of information on the subject, the new project aims to reach as many businesses and employees as possible in the sector, to get them to make an effort to identify and effectively combat harassment and bullying practices.
