Dockers of Europe!

On 1 January, a ‘Dockers Clause’ of the IBF framework agreement comes into effect. As a consequence, dockers will (again) be doing the lashing for the ships covered by the IBF Collective Bargaining Agreement.

To all the ship owners who will not be respecting the new clause, we say: We will make sure the new Dockers Clause is implemented! We are ready!
