Breakwave Advisors in partnership with ETF Managers Group LLC, announced that the Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF (BWET) will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

ETF urged for the eradication of social dumping practices in Inland Waterways Transport (IWT), saying that IWT functions without having flag state legislation.

According to ETF, the European Commission is expected to release two important reports in early 2023: the Action plan to conserve fisheries resources and protect marine ecosystems and the Report on the functioning of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP).

In the context of the EU co-funded WESS project , ECSA and ETF are committed to assessing shipboard living and working conditions with a view to taking action to contribute to an “attractive, smart and sustainable environment onboard”.

A report by ETF and ECSA named “Enhanced participation of women in European shipping – The opportunity to increase gender balance in the EU maritime sector,” aims to address the issue of women seafarers being underrepresented in the industry.

The European Transport Workers' Federation is demanding an end to a loophole in EU competition law that benefits shipowners at the expense of maritime workers.

According to ETF, the favourable treatment of the shipping lines, as the one being guaranteed via the Consortia Block Exemption Regulation (CBER), should be abolished.

In a joint statement, the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) and European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF) are calling on DP World to engage in meaningful dialogue with affiliates RMT and Nautilus International about P&O Ferries’ future.

The European Transport Workers' Federation (ETF) is urging governments to ratify a United Nations (UN) Convention addressing gender-based violence and harassment in a message to mark the 2021 United Nations international day for combating violence against women.

ETF and ECSA are better prepared to explain the requirements for any EU-wide data collection system to foresee the needs of the workforce.
