The upcoming implementation phase is crucial, and IndustriALL is committed to ensuring that the principles of the Convention are effectively enacted. We will continue to work tirelessly to safeguard workers' rights, promote safe practices, and advocate for environmental sustainability in the shipbreaking industry.

IndustriALL's campaign materials to clean up Shipbreaking  serve not only as a reminder of how far we have come but also as a call to action, emphasizing the need for continued vigilance and commitment.

The ratification of the Hong Kong Convention is a significant achievement, but IndustriALL's mission is far from over. IndustriALL together with affiliates are dedicated to monitoring the implementation of the Convention, advocating for the adoption of its standards worldwide, and ensuring that shipbreaking no longer claims lives or harms the environment.
