35、n the ILO Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 is to assist shipowners and operators in understanding the requirements contained within the International Labour Organizations Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (the Convention) and provide relevant examples for incorporating these requirements into a compa
36、nys management system (MS). In some cases, if the shipowner has delegated responsibility for operation of the ship to another company, that company is then responsible for maintaining and complying with the requirements of the Convention. In these Guidance Notes, shipowner and company are to be cons
37、idered synonymous. 1.2 Applicability Except as expressly provided otherwise, this Convention applies to all ships (and the seafarers on that ship), whether publicly or privately owned, ordinarily engaged in commercial activities. It defines a seafarer as any person who is employed or engaged or work
38、s in any capacity on board a ship. The Convention does not apply to ships engaged in fishing or in similar pursuits; ships which navigate exclusively in inland waters or waters within, or closely adjacent to, sheltered waters or areas where port regulations apply; and ships of traditional build such
39、 as dhows and junks. The Convention does not apply to warships or naval auxiliaries. Article II, paragraph 4 In the event of doubt as to whether this Convention applies to a ship or particular category of ships, the question shall be determined by the competent authority in each ILO Member State aft
40、er consultation with the shipowners and seafarers organizations concerned. Article II, paragraph 5 Where the competent authority determines that it would not be reasonable or practicable at the present time to apply certain details of the Code referred to in Article VI, paragraph 1, to a ship or par
41、ticular categories of ships flying the flag of the Member, the relevant provisions of the Code shall not apply to the extent that the subject matter is dealt with differently by national laws or regulations or collective bargaining agreements or other measures. Such a determination may only be made
42、in consultation with the shipowners and seafarers organizations concerned and may only be made with respect to ships of less than 200 gross tonnage not engaged in international voyages. Article II, paragraph 6 The Regulations and the provisions of Part A of the Code are mandatory. The provisions of
43、Part B of the Code are not mandatory. Article VI, paragraph 1 Section 1 Introduction 2 ABSGUIDANCE NOTES ON THE ILO MARITIME LABOUR CONVENTION, 2006 .2009 1.3 Objectives The objectives of these Guidance Notes are as follows: i) Summarize the background development and give an explanation of the make
44、up of the Convention. ii) Identify certification requirements and other shipowner obligations. iii) List the text of regulations and mandatory requirements (Part A of the Convention) addressed in the 14 areas of the maritime standards or shipowners procedures and/or processes listed in the Declarati
45、on of Maritime Labour Compliance (DMLC). iv) Suggest various methods of achieving compliance with each Regulation, considering the guidance contained in Part B of the Code. v) Suggest types of manuals and procedures that the shipowner could develop, together with associated records, to demonstrate c
46、ompliance with this Convention. vi) Provide an example of a completed DMLC, Part II. vii) Identify the five Regulations and mandatory Part A requirements in which inspections must be carried out, in addition to the inspection and certification requirements in the 14 parts of the DMLC as part of the
47、entire certification process. viii) Summarize flag State and port State control responsibilities and potential actions under the Convention 1.4 The International Labour Organization (ILO) The International Labour Organization (ILO) is the United Nations (UNs) specialized tripartite agency which brin
48、gs together governments, employers and workers of its member States in common action to promote decent work conditions throughout the world. The ILO was founded in 1919 and is the only surviving major creation of the Treaty of Versailles which brought the League of Nations into being. It became the
49、first specialized agency of the UN in 1946. The ILO develops international labor standards in the form of Conventions and Recommendations, setting minimum standards of basic labor rights: freedom of association, the right to organize, collective bargaining, abolition of forced labor, equality of opportunity and treatment, and other standards regulating conditions across the entire spectrum of work-related issues. The ILO promotes the development of independent employer and workers organizations and provides training and advisory servic
