We have been appointed as exclusive ISM/ISPS Auditors by the Liberian International Ship & Corporate Registry (LISCR, LLC), a U.S. owned and operated company that provides the day-to-day management for the Republic of Liberia’s ship and corporate registry. LISCR is recognized globally for its professionalism and commitment to safe and secure shipping as well as its proficient administration of one of the most convenient, efficient, and tax effective offshore corporate registries in the world.
Additionally to ISM/ISPS, we are the exclusive Liberian Maritime Labour Auditors certified and appointed by LISCR to conduct, once implemented, the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), 2006 Audit which applies to:
- Ships of 500 gross tonnage or over, engaged in international voyages;
- Ships of 500 gross tonnage or over, operating from a port, or between ports, in another country
- Other ships, as may be voluntarily requested by a shipowner.
MLC, 2006 sets out seafarers’ rights to minimum decent conditions of work and living and helps to create conditions of fair competition for shipowners. It will be globally applicable, easily understandable, readily updatable and uniformly enforced. An estimated 90% of world trade is carried on ships and seafarers are in this sense essential to international trade and the international economic and trade system. The new labour standard consolidates and updates more than 68 international labour standards related to the Maritime sector adopted over the last 80 years.
