What we do

What we do

IMEC co-ordinates the views of its members and represents them in negotiations over wages and conditions of employment for seafarers.

We provide advice to members on all aspects of maritime human resources, including the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 and developments at the International Labour Organization. We are also involved in the support of seafarer welfare and it is represented on industry roundtables in many key areas including piracy and criminalisation.

IMEC runs a cadet training program on behalf of our members at the Maritime Academy of Asia and the Pacific (MAAP), in the Philippines.
