Press Release: ECSA and the European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF) are happy to announce that they have been awarded EU funding for a new joint social dialogue project that will be implemented over the next 24 months.

The project is entitled “Contributing to an Attractive, Smart and Sustainable Working Environment in the Shipping Sector” (WESS).

The WESS project will involve the implementation of several activities centred around two pillars:
