45 minutes on responsible shipping: Uplifting marine safety and seafarer welfare in our supply chains

Join this event organised by the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI), with speakers including IHRB's Shipping Lead, Francesca Fairbairn.

Shipping is essential to the global aluminium value chain. This makes the safety, welfare, rights and working conditions of seafarers an important consideration for responsible sourcing and human rights due diligence.

This 45 minutes webinar will explore responsible shipping, with a particular focus on the dry bulk shipping sector. Participants will gain an understanding of the main risks faced by seafarers, the international frameworks that help protect them, and the challenges and opportunities involved in working towards zero harm in maritime.

The session will also introduce industry initiatives and resources that can help organisations strengthen responsible shipping practices. It will conclude with reflections on the opportunities for companies to engage with this critical element of the supply chain.

This webinar is relevant for ASI Members, commercial (procurement and sales & marketing) and supply chain professionals, sustainability practitioners, shipping and logistics specialists, and anyone with an interest in responsible maritime transport and human rights due diligence.
