We aim to protect and advance the rights of the workers.

3. Maritime technology industry
500,000 direct jobs
1 direct shipyard job -> x7 jobs in region
Europe produces 50% of the total marine supplies worldwide
Civil shipbuilding European shipyards represent 20% of global orderbook value
‘Blue economy’ represents 5.4 million jobs
RISK! Unfair competition from overseas.
Innovation-driven, technology advanced industry with highly-skilled quality jobs.
Importance for many regions- SMEs

4. Changes in employment Decline in overall employment since 2008
losses in commercial shipyards between 15-75%
Directly employed to ‘’self-employed’’
Large steel-intensive cargo carriers to high technology vessels
How to retain skills and up-skill?

5. LeaderSHIP 2020 Employment and skills
Pillar 1- Employment and Skills
Restructuring
Image and career path
New skills and lifelong learning
Harmonisation of certificates and mobility

6. Restructuring Risks to regions Long term strategy
Increased complexity of products- skills shortage
How to retain skills?

Long term strategy- to ensure sustainability and competitiveness
Skills shortages restricts growth

7. Image and career path
High demand for skilled personnel- attract AND retain
Need ‘right’ image and to appeal to talented young people
High tech future with long term positive perspective
Important to provide for lifelong career prospects
European Maritime Technology Week 2018
EU funding for training and education
Long term strategy- to ensure sustainability and competitiveness
Skills shortages restricts growth

8. New skills and lifelong learning
Must address the current and future skills/training needs.
Timely anticipation of employment and skills needs
Re-skilling/re-training programmes
Promotion of lifelong learning & sharing of knowledge
Dual education systems should be extended
Common European standard

Transfer systems between education and industry (dual education and apprenticeships)
Duel education systems (VET and the simultaneous pursuit of a university degree) should be extended- especially in areas with maritime clusters
Curriculum of training centres in Europe should be reviewed and harmonised to establish a common European standard (EU-wide recognised degrees).
Extension of the competences of the European Globalisation Fund- upgrade the skills of workers in sectors/supply chains that are suffering from off-shoring and international competition.

9. Harmonisation of certificates and mobility
Mobility should be encouraged and facilitated
Recognise skills of workers
Mutual recognition of EU degrees
Tailoring educational programmes
European maritime engineering degree?
Mutual recognition of EU degrees
Tailoring educational programmes to address the diversification of industry and knowledge requirements.
European maritime engineering degree- to be explored

10. Further demands
A European observatory for the compilation of data on H&S.
The use of different frameworks for public tenders to be considered.
Implement the LeaderSHIP 2020 recommendations for procurement processes.
Create a definition for a ‘Made in Europe’ label.
Revise the finance instruments available for the sector.
EU funding should support home-grown technology development.
Dedicated R&D programmes in ‘Blue Growth’ opportunities.
Encourage pioneering companies to invest in new technologies.

11. SSDC Shipbuilding Work Programme 2018-2019
Promote the sector e.g. Maritime Technology Week 2018
ESCO project follow-up
Education and recognition of certificates (European harmonisation system)
Industry 4.0- evaluate the impact of new technologies and anticipate re-training needs
Blueprint project
