The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF), to which the SIU is affiliated, recently updated its website to include a comprehensive section aimed at supporting “Women at Sea.”
As noted by the federation, “Our resources are for women, seafaring unions and other stakeholders in the maritime industry.
Our aims are:
- To help to increase the number of women working at sea.
- To develop the careers of those already working at sea.
- To increase communication between seafarers, their unions and the ITF.
- To raise the visibility of women working at sea.
- To contribute to making the maritime industry a safe workplace for women.
