Petition Details

Too many shipping and offshore workers have been put on benefits due to unfair competition from workers earning way below the UK minimum wage

Additional Information

I've been a seafarer for 39 years and watched the decline in jobs across the board . Our government need to take action now or the future will bring problems with no experience to keep the industry afloat . We already have too few vessels and crews to support our forces in oversea conflicts .
Over 90% of UK Trade is done by shipping yes we are losing jobs and companies . Act now before it's to late and support this petition
