Algoma Central Corporation Commits to Industry Leadership to Further Address Workplace Harassment
Released in response to the Seafarers’ Union Report on workplace harassment in the marine sector
Thank you to the SIU for bringing additional focus to this issue and your dedication to raising awareness and finding solutions. The SIU has been a longstanding partner in addressing harassment cases within our organization and we are committed to continuing to work together to ensure a safe working environment for all. It is important that unions and ship operators collaborate and maintain an open dialogue. Together, we can take the lead addressing this issue and further develop cohesive, zero tolerance action plans across the marine sector.
At Algoma, we are dedicated to cultivating a workplace culture founded on principles of respect and inclusion. Recognizing the profound impact that all forms of harassment can have on the well-being of our employees, we prioritize the safety and health of our crews and staff. This commitment has always been, and continues to be, our foremost priority. In recent years, we have enhanced our Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention Policy, reporting procedures, and training. That said, we recognize that more needs to be done.
There is no place for harassment at Algoma. Please go to www.algonet.com/sustainability/governance/ to learn more about our Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention Policy and how to file an anonymous report if you have seen or experienced harassment either shipboard or shoreside.
