ICS | Annual Shipping Industry Flag State Performance Table

The annual Shipping Industry Flag State Performance Table, from the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), has identified reporting on seafarer wellbeing as a “casualty of the pandemic,” following its publication this week.

The Table is intended to encourage shipowners to maintain a dialogue with their Flag states, and help facilitate necessary improvements in the interests of safety, the environment and decent working conditions, among other issues.

This year’s Table highlights a drop in levels of reporting on the status of national ILO labour standards, including the 2006 Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), underscoring the severe administrative pressures of the pandemic and the ongoing ‘crew change crisis’ on seafarers, governments and the industry alike.
