Lisbon, 18 December 2019
Subject: Invitation to a Workshop on the Maritime Labour
Convention, 2006 to be held in Lisbon between 18 and 20
February 2020
Your Excellency,
The European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) is one of the EU's decentralised agencies established under
Regulation (EC) 1406/2002, as amended, of the European Parliament and of the Council for the purpose of
ensuring a high, uniform and effective level of maritime safety, maritime security, prevention of, and response
to, pollution caused by ships as well as response to marine pollution caused by oil and gas installations. The
Agency shall facilitate cooperation between the Member States and the Commission in providing technical
assistance necessary to contribute to the relevant work of the technical bodies of the IMO, the International
Labour Organisation as far as shipping is concerned, and the Paris Memorandum of Understanding on Port
State Control (“Paris MoU”) and relevant regional organisations to which the Union has acceded, with regard
to matters of Union competence.
Since the entry into force of the Maritime Labour Convention in 2013, experience has shown that further work
should be carried out to effectively ensure its implementation.
Aiming at creating a worldwide level playing field by means of harmonization and uniformity on compliance
and enforcement, it would be beneficial for Governments, Shipowners and Seafarers to jointly discuss and
examine how the MLC has been functioning in particular from the perspective of port State and flag State
responsibilities.
Therefore, an International Workshop on the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 will be hosted by the
European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) from 18 to 20 February 2020, in Lisbon, Portugal. The main
objective of the event is to facilitate an exchange of views and promote cooperation and exchange of
information among MLC-ratifying and non-ratifying countries. The workshop is a joint initiative by EMSA, the
European Commission, the International Maritime Organization and the International Labour Organization.
The workshop will be open to ILO and IMO Member Government representatives dealing with compliance and
enforcement issues related to the MLC and to representatives of the social partners.
EMSA would like to invite one participant from each EU Member State to attend this three-day workshop,
which will be held at the EMSA premises – Praça Europa 4, Cais do Sodré, Lisbon. Each participant should
ideally be from the Member State’s competent authority responsible for the implementation and enforcement
