HCMM's statement regarding P&O Ferries Ltd

We are disappointed to hear of the action taken by P&O Ferries on the immediate termination of employment of U.K. Seafarers.

As an organisation committed to the promotion and skills of all mariners, we stand resolute in support of our members and all seafarers impacted by the news.

We continue to monitor the situation and work closely with other organisations to ensure that the welfare and support of those affected is upheld.

The Honourable Company of Master Mariners remains steadfast in our support of the U.K. Merchant Navy and our members.
