Representativeness of the European social partner organisations: Maritime transport sector

This study provides information designed to encourage sectoral social dialogue in the maritime transport sector. The aim of Eurofound’s series of representativeness studies is to identify the relevant national and supranational social partner organisations in the field of industrial relations in selected sectors. Top-down and bottom-up analyses of the maritime transport sector in the 25 EU Member States covered in the study reveal that ETF and ECSA are the most important European-level social partner organisations in the sector based on their membership.
