2 Few facts regarding FEPORT Founded in 1993, FEPORT is the European organisation which represents the interests of the terminal operators and stevedoring companies located out of the seaports of the European Union. Feport's membership consists of national and regional sector associations in EU Member States, EFTA and accession countries. In addition, in view of the importance of many recent policy developments, many of the main European terminal operators have joined directly as associate members. FEPORT Secretariat ensures that the common interests of terminal operators are heard at European level and that FEPORT members are well informed of developments at European level.

16 What is a Sectoral Social Dialogue Committee (SSDC) The SSDCs act as a forum for consultation on the drafting of European Union (EU) legislation and policies on employment and social affairs. The committees also constitute an independent framework for social dialogue between the European social partners, particularly for carrying out joint actions and negotiations. Europa.eu Four Social Partners FEPORT ESPO European Seaports Organisaiton ETF- European Transport Workers Federation Representativeness of Associations (Employers) IDC International Dockworkers Council FEPORT represents employers in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Spain & Slovenia. ESPO represents employers in Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Malta, Sweden & United Kingdom

17 Scope of Social Dialogue Social Dialogue will respect national, regional and company agreements and systems Training and Qualifications, Health and Safety and Gender Issues priority issue to be handed Training and Qualifications Health and Safety Gender Issues Possible creation of European guidelines for the establishment of training requirements Ensure greater flexibility and performance standards Establish existing national health and safety requirements Work to ensure proper enforcement where high standards exist Where standards don t exist, raise best practice Work to ensure there are no restrictive recruitment practices in place in European ports PEMA AGM - February 4 th, 2015
