百日战乱：运输工人用生命付出代价逾一百天 /100 days of war: 100 days of transport workers paying with their lives

百日战乱：运输工人用生命付出代价逾一百天
100 days of war: 100 days of transport workers paying with their lives

美国和以色列对伊朗发动「史诗怒火行动」至今逾100天。这场战争并非由平民运输工人挑起，也无法由他们结束，但他们却为此付出了惨痛的代价──失去生命、健康和自由。
100 days have passed since the United States of America and Israel launched ‘Operation Epic Fury’ against Iran. One hundred days of a war that civilian transport workers did not start, cannot end and have paid for – with their lives, their health and their freedom.

100天过去，尽管局势一再出现缓和的希望，但战争实质仍然持续甚至加剧──苦难延长，使运输工人重新面临不可接受的风险。
100 days on, despite repeated moments of hope for de-escalation, the war has resumed and intensified – extending the suffering and exposing transport workers to renewed and unacceptable risks.
国际运输工人联盟（ITF）从一开始就明确指出，运输工人并非战士。他们是维持世界运作的普通劳工——海员、飞行员、机组人员、地勤人员、空中交通管制员、卡车司机、港口工人等等。他们与这场冲突没有任何利害关系，也无力制止冲突。然而，他们却日复一日地承受着冲突带来的种种后果。我们绝不会允许世界对他们所遭受的苦难视而不见。
From day one, the ITF has unequivocally said that transport workers are not combatants. They are civilian workers – seafarers, pilots, cabin crew, ground handlers, air traffic controllers, truck drivers, port workers – who keep the world moving. They have no stake in this conflict. They have no power to stop it. But they continue, day after day, to absorb its consequences. And we will not allow the world to look away from what is being done to them.

一场以平民工人为目标的战争A war that targets civilian workers

正值这标记时刻，针对民间运输工人的攻击并未停止。近日，科威特国际机场和巴林国际机场再次遭到攻击，造成无辜平民丧生，并将航空工作人员置于危险之中。在波斯湾，船只持续成为攻击目标。最近在霍尔木兹海峡附近发生的针对民用船只的袭击和胁持事件并非首宗，而是延续了过去一百天以来的模式。平民工人被蓄意置于危险之中，而肇事者对此心知肚明。
As we mark this moment, the attacks on civilian transport workers have not stopped. In recent days, strikes on Kuwait International Airport and Bahrain International Airport have again claimed an innocent civilian life and put aviation workers in the line of fire. In the Persian Gulf, ships continue to be targeted. The most recent wave of attacks and seizures of civilian vessels near the Strait of Hormuz is not a departure from what has come before – it is the continuation of a pattern that has been playing out for one hundred days. Civilian workers are being deliberately placed in danger, and those responsible know exactly what they are doing.

冲突爆发后的最初几个小时，冲突地区的学校、机场和港口遭到攻击，导致数百名平民工作人员伤亡。科威特国际机场、巴林国际机场、杜拜国际机场和扎耶德国际机场均有工作人员受伤。扎耶德国际机场有一人死亡。这些地点并非军事目标，而是民用工作场所。当时，工作人员正在履行职责：办理航班登机手续、引导飞机、装载货物、为乘客服务。航空工作人员像往常一样上班，却突然发现自己身处战区。
In the first hours of this conflict, schools, airports and ports across the conflict region came under attack resulting in hundreds of civilian workers being killed and injured. Workers were injured at Kuwait International Airport, at Bahrain International Airport, at Dubai International Airport, at Zayed International Airport. One person was killed at Zayed. These are not military targets, they are civilian workplaces. The people inside them were doing their jobs: checking in flights, directing aircraft, loading cargo, serving passengers. Aviation workers showed up for work and found themselves in a war zone.

在随后的几天和几周，针对民用船只的袭击愈演愈烈。多艘船舶在霍尔木兹海峡附近及于波斯湾海域遭遇袭击。伊朗和美国扣押了多艘船只。海员被杀，海员受伤，还有海员被劫为人质。
In the days and weeks that followed, the attacks on civilian shipping intensified. Ships were struck near the Strait of Hormuz and across the Persian Gulf. Vessels have been seized by Iran and the United States. Seafarers have been killed. Seafarers have been injured. And seafarers are being held hostage.

除了攻击本身之外，该地区的运输工人——包括运送货物穿越冲突走廊、跨越封闭边界、在中断的路线上行驶的卡车司机——每天都面临着战争经济的现实：危险、恶劣的生活条件，而且在许多情况下，根本没有任何保护。
And beyond the attacks themselves, transport workers across the region – including trucks drivers carrying goods through conflict corridors, crossing closed borders, navigating disrupted routes –have faced the daily reality of a war economy: danger, impossible conditions, and in too many cases, no protection at all.

The human cost 人道代价

超过两万名海员仍滞留在波斯湾。这些海员绝大多数来自全球南方国家，远离家人，不知何时才能回家。在某些情况下，他们的燃料、食水和食物都已近耗尽。他们目睹头顶上空的飞弹、无人机横飞，即使能够入睡，也深知自己身处战区。自战争爆发以来， ITF已收到海员及其家属超过2500宗援助请求，并已协助600多名海员返回家乡。
More than 20,000 seafarers remain stranded in the Persian Gulf. These seafarers are overwhelmingly from the Global South, far from their families, with no certainty about when they will see home again. In some cases, they are running low on fuel, water and food. They watch missiles and drones in the skies above them, they sleep, if they’re able to, knowing they are in a warzone. Since the war began, the ITF has received over 2,500 requests for assistance from seafarers and their families and assisted more than 600 seafarers to get home.

这场战争对劳工心理健康造成的摧残极为深远，却长期被国际社会所忽视。持续的恐惧、孤立无援的绝望、前途未卜的焦虑，以及与至亲长期分离的痛苦——这些绝非抽象的形容词，而是真切且深刻的心理创伤。对于许多身陷战火的前线工人而言，这些阴霾恐怕将伴随他们一生。部分雇主非但没有提供支援，反而落井下石，试图利用战争作为掩饰：他们滥用不可抗力条款，未经劳工同意便强行延长雇佣合约；更有什者，限制或切断船员与外界的通讯，并无理拒绝履行船员遣返的义务。
The mental health consequences are profound, and they are not being adequately acknowledged. Sustained fear. Isolation. Uncertainty. Separation from family. These are not abstract harms – they are serious, documented psychological injuries that will outlast this conflict for many of the workers caught in it. Some employers have made this worse, seeking to use the war as cover: invoking force majeure to extend contracts without consent, restricting or cutting communications, denying repatriation.

战争绝不能成为雇主剥夺海员权利的空白支票。《海事劳工公约》（MLC）的核心价值，正是为了防止此类滥权行为发生。全面且立即执行该公约——而非等到冲突对自身有利时才权宜行事——是绝不容妥协的底线。船员换班必须如期进行、合约必须切实履行，且该地区的每一位海员，都必须拥有与家人不受限制地保持联系的权利。关于建立人道主义海上走廊以恢复霍尔木兹海峡航运的提议，正日益受到国际关注。 ITF 完全理解此事的迫切性，但我们的立场始终坚定不移：任何海上走廊的运作，都必须以冲突各方「全面、具约束力且经核实」的保证为绝对前提，确保所有参与船舶及其船员绝不会成为军事攻击的目标。
War must not be a blank cheque for employers to strip seafarers of their rights. The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) exists precisely to prevent this. Full implementation – now, not when the conflict is convenient – is non-negotiable. Crew changes must happen. Contracts must be honoured. Every seafarer in this region must be able to contact their family without restriction. Proposals for a humanitarian maritime corridor to restore flows through the Strait of Hormuz have attracted growing attention. The ITF understands the urgency, but we are unequivocal on one point: any such corridor can only operate if there is a full, binding, verified guarantee from every party to this conflict that participating vessels and their crews will not be targeted.

自始至终，民航业的前线员工都承受着难以想像的沉重负担。在袭击阴霾的威胁下，他们依然坚守岗位，竭力维持机场运作、执行紧急撤侨航班，并全力应对因空域关闭、航班改道及运营不确定性所带来的连锁冲击。这场危机的连锁效应已波及全球：机组人员正面临更长的航程与超负荷的执勤时间；地勤人员与空中交通管制员则必须在极度混乱的营运环境中疲于奔命。这是一场全球航空业劳工正在共同承受的集体冲击。 ITF从一开始便严正声明，民用航空基础设施绝不能成为军事目标。遗憾的是，这一条国际公认的底线已被无情践踏。而科威特国际机场与巴林国际机场的同侪，不幸成为了最新一批为此付出惨痛代价的受害者。
Civil aviation workers have been carrying an impossible burden since day one. They kept airports operating under the threat of attack. They ran evacuation flights. They managed the cascading disruption of closed airspace, rerouted flights and maximum operational uncertainty. The knock-on effects extend worldwide: flight crews facing longer routes and extended duty times, ground staff and air traffic controllers managing complex operational chaos. This is a global aviation workforce absorbing a global shock. The ITF said from the outset that civilian aviation infrastructure and must never be military targets. That principle has been violated. Workers at Kuwait International Airport and Bahrain International Airport are the latest to pay the ultimate price.

ITF这100天的诉求
The ITF’s demands 100 days in

过去这一百天里，运输工人日夜面临着死亡、受伤、非法拘留、精神创伤与被迫滞留的血腥威胁。然而，即便身处险境，他们依然坚守岗位，默默运送着全球赖以生存的旅客、物资与生命必需品。
For one hundred days transport workers have been killed, injured, detained, traumatised and stranded while continuing to carry passengers, cargo and essential goods on which the world depends.
我们的诉求依然不变：
Our demands remain unchanged:
• 各方立即永久停火并全面缓和局势。
An immediate, permanent ceasefire and full de-escalation by all parties.
• 根据国际法，对平民运输工人及民用基础设施提供全面、无条件的保护
Full and unconditional protection of civilian transport workers and civilian infrastructure under international law
• 立即釋放所有被扣押的海員和船舶。
The immediate release of all detained seafarers and vessels.
• 全面落实《海事劳工公约》的各项保护措施，包括船员换班、工资支付、不受限制的通信和遣返。
Full implementation of Maritime Labour Convention protections, including crew changes, wage payments, unrestricted communications and repatriation.
• 停止滥用不可抗力条款来损害工人权利。
An end of the misuse of force majeure to undermine workers’ rights.
• 为所有受冲突影响的交通运输从业人员提供有意义的心理健康支援。
Meaningful mental health support for all transport workers affected by this conflict.
• 任何人道海上走廊的建立都必须有充分、可核实、具有约束力的安全保证。
Any humanitarian maritime corridor to be enacted only with full, verified, binding safety guarantees.
• 在联合国领导下，紧急进行外交努力，以国际法和联合国宪章为基础，实现公正持久的和平。
Urgent diplomatic engagement under United Nations leadership toward a just and durable peace, grounded in international law and the UN Charter.

100天来，各国政府发表声明，军队交火，政治领袖捍卫各自的立场。
For 100 days, governments have issued statements, militaries have exchanged fire, and political leaders have defended their positions.

但运输工人付出了代价。
Transport workers have carried the cost.

ITF代表全球超过1650万名运输工人，我们的讯息很明确：运输工人绝不是消耗品！他们不是附带损害！他们不是谈判筹码！他们不是战争工具！结束这场战争，保护平民运输工人，让滞留和被拘留的运输工人回家。
The ITF represents more than 16.5 million transport workers worldwide and our message is clear: Transport workers are not expendable. They are not collateral damage. They are not bargaining chips. They are not instruments of war. End this war, protect civilian transport workers, and bring stranded and detained transport workers home.

在此之前，ITF将继续发声、组织活动并为每位身陷这场冲突阴霾下的运输工人而战。
Until that happens, the ITF will continue to speak out, organise and fight for every transport worker trapped in the shadow of this conflict.

制度已崩坏，我们受够了！/ The system is broken, we have had enough

制度已崩坏，我们受够了！
The system is broken, we have had enough

世界海员和码头工人工会要求立即结束海员人道危机，并呼吁各国政府正视「方便旗」制度，该制度助长了剥削，却未能保护海员。
World’s seafarers’ and dockers’ unions demand immediate end to seafarer humanitarian crisis – call for governments to confront the Flag of Convenience system that enables exploitation and fails to protect seafarers.

世界各海事工会代表齐聚国际运输工人联盟（ITF）公平实践委员会（Fair Practices Committee，FPC），以前所未有的团结姿态，要求立即结束波斯湾海员面临的人道危机。
The world’s maritime unions came together at the ITF’s Fair Practices Committee in an unprecedented show of solidarity to demand an immediate end to the humanitarian crisis faced by seafarers in the Persian Gulf.

各工会重申ITF的呼吁 — 各方应永久停火并全面缓和局势，立即启动以国际法为基础的外交斡旋。他们谴责以色列和美国的非法轰炸，以及伊朗随后在该地区发动的报复性攻击，认为这些行为违反了国际法最基本的原则：禁止使用武力。
The unions reiterate the ITF’s call for a permanent ceasefire and full de-escalation by all parties, and the urgent initiation of diplomacy grounded in international law. They condemn the illegal bombing carried out by Israel and the United States, and the subsequent retaliatory attacks launched by Iran across the region, in violation of the most fundamental rule of international law: the prohibition on the use of force.

超过2万名海员仍然被困在霍尔木兹海峡，他们面临恐惧和前景不明，与家人失散，许多人面临食物、水和燃料短缺的困境。
More than 20,000 seafarers remain trapped inside the Strait of Hormuz, facing fear and uncertainty, cut off from their families, and in many cases running short of food, water and fuel.

海员在非自愿的情况下进入战区，因袭击而丧生或受伤。他们大多来自全球南方国家，离乡别井，为世界各地的经济体和社会运送货物。然而，他们却沦为地缘政治冲突的棋子。
Seafarers have been killed and injured in attacks in a war zone they did not choose to enter. They are workers largely from the Global South, far from home, carrying the world’s cargo on behalf of all our economies and communities. Yet they are being used as pawns in geopolitical conflict.

该地区海员的心理健康承受着巨大的压力，而雇主 — 包括我们在国际谈判论坛的合作伙伴 — 仍然拒绝为海员提供更完善的心理社会伤害保护，甚至在最绝望的情况下，拒绝提供针对自杀的保护。
The mental health of seafarers in the region is under immense strain, and employers – including our partners in the International Bargaining Forum – continue to deny enhanced protections for psychosocial harm, including suicide in the most desperate cases.

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）及其属会数十年来一直在与方便旗制度斗争。我们揭露了这项制度的本质，开展了反对运动，记录了对人类造成的后果，并要求各国政府采取行动废除。
The ITF and our affiliated unions have been fighting the Flag of Convenience (FOC) system for decades. We have named it, campaigned against it, documented its human consequences, and demanded that governments act to end it.

此刻，我们要再次揭露：方便旗制度是剥削海员的核心毒瘤。在这场危机中，我们检查员和支援团队每天都在处理许多源于此制度的剥削事件。正是这种制度支撑着影子船队，导致海员被遗弃人数屡创新高，并在新冠疫情期间的船员换班危机中，造成了最严重的剥削行为。而各国政府一年复一年，在一次又一次的危机中，都选择让海员失望。We are naming it again now: the FOC system is the rotten apple at the core of seafarer exploitation. Within this crisis, it is behind many of the abuses our inspectors and support teams are dealing with daily. It is the enabling architecture behind the shadow fleet, behind record-breaking abandonment figures and behind the worst abuses of the Covid-19 crew change crisis. And governments have chosen, year after year, crisis after crisis, to fail seafarers.

制度已经崩坏，我们有证据。
The system is broken, we have the evidence

自美以伊战争爆发以来，国际运输工人联盟（ITF）接获来自该地区海员的2,200多宗求助。其中一半与未支付工资和合约应得权益有关、约20%要求遣返回家；约10%涉及船舶燃料和物资严重短缺问题。迄今，ITF已协助遣返逾540名海员。
Since the US/Israel-Iran war began, the ITF has received over 2,200 requests for assistance from seafarers in the region. Half relate to unpaid wages and contractual entitlements; around 20% are requests for repatriation; and roughly 10% concern vessels running critically low on essential fuel and supplies. To date, the ITF has assisted in the repatriation of more than 540 seafarers.

这场人道危机并非毫无预兆。 ITF的数据显示，2025年再次成为被遗弃海员人数最多的一年 — 共有6223名海员遭遗弃，比前一年增加了32%，这也是被遗弃人数连续第六年上升。一场早已触发的危机。
This crisis did not arrive without warning. The ITF’s data showed that 2025 was again the worst year on record for seafarer abandonment – with 6,223 seafarers abandoned, a 32% increase on the previous year and the sixth consecutive year of rising cases. A crisis that was already happening.

在方便旗制度下，船东可以在与船舶拥有权、管理或运营没有任何实际联系的国家注册船旗 — 这违反了《联合国海洋法公约》。船旗国收取注册费，却只提供最低限度的审查和承担几乎等于零的责任。他们出售的是无需执法的主权。
Under the FOC system, a shipowner can register a vessel in a state with no genuine link to its ownership, management or operation – in contravention of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. In exchange for registration fees, flag states offer minimal scrutiny and near-zero accountability. They are selling enforcement-free sovereignty.

船东可以合法地购买船旗，然后肆意剥削船员，遗弃船舶，翌日就换个船旗注册 — 这足以说明海事管治的岌岌可危。
The simple fact that a shipowner can buy a flag, exploit a crew, abandon a vessel, and register under a different flag tomorrow – legally – tells you everything about the parlous state of maritime governance.

船旗国和不择手段的雇主屡次辜负海员，却逍遥法外。最糟糕的方便旗船籍国完全推卸对船员的责任。这是一种选择，一种为了收取注册费而放弃维护和保护海员权利的选择。
Flag states and unscrupulous employers have failed seafarers repeatedly, without consequence. The worst FOC flags have shown a complete derogation of responsibility towards their crews. That is a choice, a choice to collect registration fees over enforcing and protecting seafarers’ rights.
我们的诉求Our demands：
1. 所有船舶注册必须公开利益船东的资讯。
Mandatory beneficial ownership transparency for all vessel registrations.
2. 政府对方便旗制度展开调查。
Government investigations into the FOC system.
3. 强制执行「真实联系」原则 — 无法证明存在此联系的船旗国不应持有颁发船旗的权利。
Enforcement of the ‘genuine link’ – flag states that cannot demonstrate this link should lose the right to issue flags.
4. 对屡次违反《海事劳工公约》义务的船旗国追究全部责任。
Full accountability for flag states that repeatedly breach their Maritime Labour Convention obligations.
5. 保障被遗弃海员的遣返权、工资追偿权和法律补偿权 – 如果找不到船东，则船旗国应承担经济责任。
A guaranteed right to repatriation, wage recovery, and legal redress for abandoned seafarers – with flag states held financially liable where shipowners cannot be found.

方便旗制度是透过多国政府的主动选择建立和扩展的。它也可以透过不同的选择进行改革。海员被遗弃、假船旗、影子船队、规避制裁 — 这些都是制度失灵的相互关联后果。除非制度得到改革，否则这些问题将不断重演。
The FOC system was built and expanded through the active choices of governments. It can be reformed through different choices. Seafarer abandonment, false flags, shadow fleets, sanctions evasion – these are interconnected outcomes of a failing system. They will keep repeating until the system is reformed.

身为世界海员和码头工人工会的代表，我们在此声明：我们受够了。受够了剥削。受够了遗弃。受够了将维持全球经济运作的人视为可有可无的制度。
As representatives of the world’s seafarers’ and dockers’ unions, we say this: We have had enough. Enough exploitation. Enough abandonment. Enough of a system that treats the people who keep the global economy moving as expendable.

全世界都在关注霍尔木兹海峡。国际社会必须做出抉择：是否真心希望维持全球贸易运作的工人获得保障？
The world is watching the Strait of Hormuz. The international community must decide whether it is serious about protecting the workers who keep global trade moving.

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）正式就假工会问题投诉斯洛文尼亚政府容许雇主干预海员权利/ ITF files complaint against Slovenia over sham union scandal exposing employer interference in seafarers’ rights

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）正式就假工会问题投诉斯洛文尼亚政府容许雇主干预海员权利
ITF files complaint against Slovenia over sham union scandal exposing employer interference in seafarers’ rights

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）今天向国际劳工组织（ILO）正式投诉斯洛文尼亚共和国政府，揭露其未能保护海员的工会活动免受雇主干扰。
The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) filed a formal complaint against the Government of the Republic of Slovenia to the International Labour Organization (ILO) today, exposing its failure to protect seafarers from employer interference in trade union activity.

在向国际劳工组织结社自由委员会 (CFA) 提交的申诉书中，ITF详述国际海员联盟 (International Seafarers’ Union, ISU) 如何与一家名为 Lanibra 的私人公司关系密切，涉嫌违反国际法，破坏工会基本权利。
The complaint to the ILO Committee on Freedom of Association (CFA) details how the International Seafarers’ Union (ISU), operating in close connection with a private company, Lanibra, is undermining fundamental trade union rights, in breach of international law.

提交的文件列举证据，证明ISU并非独立的工人组织，并呼吁斯洛文尼亚共和国政府采取紧急行动。文件解释，ISU由代表不法船东的个人控制，其目的是破坏海员既有的劳工权利。
The submission sets out evidence that the ISU is not an independent workers’ organisation and calls on the Government of the Republic of Slovenia to take urgent action. It explains that ISU is controlled by individuals acting on behalf of unscrupulous shipowners in order to undermine established seafarers’ labour rights.

一个为雇主服务的假工会A sham union built to serve employers
ITF的投诉显示：
The ITF’s complaint shows that:
• ISU 和 Lanibra 由同一批人创立和营运，双方领导层和职能重叠。
The ISU and Lanibra were founded and operated by the same individuals, with overlapping leadership and functions.
• Lanibra 将自己定位为顾问公司，可以透过 ISU 提供「量身定制」的协议，以吸引船东的注意 — 这些协议旨在满足船公司要求，而不是工人的利益。
Lanibra markets itself to shipowners as a consultancy that can deliver “tailor-made” agreements through ISU – agreements designed to meet company requirements, not workers’ interests.
• Lanibra 充当雇主的代理人，而ISU 则声称代表海员 — 这明显构成雇主对工会的干预，而根据国际劳工公约第98L号第2条，这种干预是国际法严格禁止的。
Lanibra acts as an agent for employers while the ISU claims to represent seafarers – amounting to clear employer influence in a union, strictly prohibited by international law under Article 2 of ILO Convention 98L

ITF海员分会主席David Heindel表示：「显而易见，这个假工会违反了既定的国际工会法 — 这种情况绝不能继续下去。这种虚假运作已损害海员的工资收入和工作条件，而从中获利的却是与其合作的无良航运公司和ISU- Lanibra领导层。」
ITF Seafarers’ Section Chair, David Heindel, said: “It is plain to see that this sham union is breaking established international law on what trade unions are meant to be – this cannot be allowed to go on. This sham operation has already hit the pay and conditions of seafarers, to the benefit of the unscrupulous shipping companies it works with and the ISU-Lanibra leadership,”

问责机制缺失Failure of accountability

ITF认为，斯洛文尼亚未能履行其在国际劳工公约第98号的义务，以及有关结社自由和有效承认集体谈判权的原则，这些原则保障工人组织免受雇主干预。
The ITF argues that Slovenia has failed to uphold its obligations under ILO Convention 98 and the principles concerning freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining, which guarantee workers’ organisations protection from employer interference.

尽管ITF一再发出警告，国际劳工组织 (ILO) 监督机构也表达了关注，但斯洛文尼亚当局至今仍未采取行动。
Despite repeated warnings from the ITF and concerns raised by ILO supervisory bodies, Slovenian authorities have so far failed to act.

ITF主席Paddy Crumlin表示：「ISU-Lanibra的继续存在，是对结社自由和真正集体谈判权的直接冲击，海员们正在为此付出代价。」
“The continuing existence of ISU-Lanibra is a direct attack on freedom of association and the right to genuine collective bargaining, for which seafarers are paying the price,” said ITF President Paddy Crumlin.

斯洛文尼亚共和国政府没有任何借口不采取行动 — 它必须立即取缔这个虚假的工会组织，否则，其保障国家工会权利方面的信誉，将岌岌可危。
The Government of the Republic of Slovenia has no excuses not to act – it must immediately shut down this fake trade union operation, or else it places its entire credibility on trade union rights at risk.”

ITF呼吁
What the ITF is calling for

ITF敦促国际劳工组织结社自由委员会（CFA）采取以下行动：
The ITF is urging the CFA to:
• 认定斯洛文尼亚违反了第98号公约
Find that Slovenia is in breach of Convention 98
• 呼吁斯洛文尼亚取消ISU在该国的注册资格
Call for Slovenia to strip the ISU of its domestic registration
• 亟需进行立法改革，以防止雇主干预斯洛维尼亚工会事务再次发生。
Require urgent legislative reform to prevent future employer interference in Slovenian unions

2026年HKISSC復活節探訪慰問海員行動圆满收官 /HKISSC Successfully Concludes 2026 Easter Seafarer Outreach

2026年HKISSC復活節探訪慰問海員行動圆满收官
HKISSC Successfully Concludes 2026 Easter Seafarer Outreach

香港國際海員服務中心（HKISSC）組織開展的復活節探訪慰問海員行動于2026年4月2日圓滿收官。此次探訪慰問海員行動於3月4日啟動，截止4月2日，共探訪了109艘商船，慰问惠及2390余名海員。
The Hong Kong International Seafarers Services Centre (HKISSC) successfully concluded its Easter Seafarer Outreach Programme on 2 April 2026. Launched on 4 March, the initiative reached 109 merchant vessels and provided care and support to more than 2,390 seafarers.

此次探访慰问活动得到了兩家理事單位香港商船高級船員協會（MNOG）與香港航業海員合併工會 (AUS) 的重視與支持，ITF香港方便旗事務辦事處予以了強力後援；OOCL、SEASPAN、ANGLO-EASTERN 、WAN HAI、PIL、MAERSK香港公司及香港FLEET等航運公司對此次慰問行動予以了高度肯定与支持，部分公司不但提供了商船抵港信息，聯繫船上的海員做好接待，还积极协助中心工作人員申請碼頭通行證；受访海員亦对工作团队的慰问表示感谢，他们对工会开展关爱探访海员的活动给予了高度评价。
The programme was strongly supported by the Merchant Navy Officers’ Guild – Hong Kong and the Amalgamated Union of Seafarers, Hong Kong with additional backing from the Hong Kong ITF (FOC) Campaign Office. Leading shipping companies, including OOCL, SEASPAN, ANGLO-EASTERN, WAN HAI, PIL, MAERSK Hong Kong, and Hong Kong FLEET, highly commended the outreach efforts. Several companies not only provided vessel arrival information and facilitated crew engagement, but also actively assisted HKISSC staff in obtaining terminal access permits. Seafarers expressed heartfelt gratitude to the outreach team and praised the unions’ steadfast commitment to safeguarding seafarers’ welfare and strengthening solidarity across international crews

活動期間，中心工作團隊在上述航運公司的安排下，探訪了由其管理的34艘船舶；另隨機安排探訪慰問的商船75艘（其中48艘簽有集體協議）。來自中國內地與臺灣、菲律賓、印度、烏克蘭、俄羅斯、罗马尼亚、波兰、斯里兰卡、印尼、緬甸等25個國家的海員受惠于慰問行動，他們對香港兩家工會的关爱国际海員探访慰问行動予以了高度評價，紛紛表示要將香港国际海员中心開展的信息在同事與朋友中廣為傳播。
During the activity period, HKISSC teams with the arrangements of the aforementioned shipping companies, visited 34 vessels along with 75 randomly selected ships (48 of which operate under collective agreements). Beneficiaries included seafarers from 25 countries, including Mainland China, Taiwan, the Philippines, India, Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Poland, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Myanmar. Many participants spoke highly of the initiative and pledged to share news of HKISSC’s care and outreach with colleagues and friends worldwide.

The International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) and the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) have met representatives from Gulf States to address the ongoing conflict and its direct impact on seafarers and shipping in the Gulf.

这次会议召开之际，这场致命冲突已经持续了四个星期，期间有海员丧生，有船舶遇袭，估计有2万名海员滞留，他们生活在恐惧和前路茫茫之中，但他们的船只仍无法通过霍尔木兹海峡。
The meeting comes four weeks into the deadly conflict in which seafarers have been killed, ships have come under attack, and an estimated 20,000 seafarers remain stranded in conditions of fear and uncertainty, on ships unable to transit the Strait of Hormuz.

讨论的重点是为目前受影响的船舶和船员，联合提供紧急且切实可行的支持措施。这些措施包括：
Discussions focused on urgent practical, joint initiatives aimed at supporting ships and crews currently impacted. These include:
• 根据需要，透过国际海事组织（IMO）引入报告机制，让船舶能够突显其最迫切的补给需求，以便将需求传达给海湾国家伙伴。
Introducing, as required, a reporting mechanism, via the International Maritime Organization (IMO), for ships to highlight their most immediate concerns for resupply so this can be communicated to Gulf State partners.
• 根据各国国家法律，承认海员为「关键工人」，并根据相关国际标准，在必要时优先安排船员换班，以确保受影响地区的船舶保持足够的人员配备和正常运行。
Recognition of seafarers as key workers in accordance with the national law and the need to prioritise their replacement onboard ships, where necessary and in accordance with the relevant international standards, to ensure that vessels in the affected region remain sufficiently manned and operational.
• 能够根据医疗原因，快速、安全地让有需要的海员下船。
Being able to quickly and safely disembark seafarers from vessels for medical reasons, as necessary.

这些措施旨在支持航运业业务的持续营运，并让身处冲突地区的海员，其即时安全、保护和福祉获得保障。
These initiatives are intended to support both operational continuity for shipping and the immediate safety, protection and wellbeing of seafarers caught in the conflict zone.

国际航运公会秘书长Thomas A. Kazakos说:「本次与海湾国家合作伙伴的会议，讨论富有建设性且非常及时。他们的支持对于应对该地区的海员和船舶面临的挑战至关重要，他们承诺与我们合作，根据需要提出解决方案，这令我倍感鼓舞。
Thomas A. Kazakos, Secretary General of the International Chamber of Shipping, said: “Discussions with our partners in the Gulf States at this meeting were constructive and timely. Their support is essential to addressing the challenges facing seafarers and ships in the region and I was encouraged by their commitment to work with us to introduce solutions as required.

「我们共同确立了一系列切实可行的程序，并致力密切合作，以保障海员福利和维持全球贸易畅通。」
“Together, we have identified a series of practical and achievable steps, and we are committed to working in close partnership to safeguard seafarer welfare and maintain the flow of global trade.”

国际运输工人联盟秘书长Stephen Cotton说: 「海员处于这场冲突的前线，目前有太多海员面临极其艰难的处境。
Stephen Cotton, General Secretary of the International Transport Workers’ Federation, said: “Seafarers are on the frontline of this conflict, and right now too many are facing extremely difficult conditions.

他们必须获得食物、清洁饮用水、燃料和医疗保健。这些需要并非可有可无，而是基本人权。
It is essential that they have access to food, clean water, fuel and medical care. These are not optional; they are fundamental rights.

「与此同时，任何海员都不应被迫违背意愿留在冲突地区。那些想要回家的海员必须能够安全、及时地返回家园，并且必须制定相应的安排，以确保船员安全换班和船舶的持续运作。
“At the same time, no seafarer should be expected to remain in a conflict zone against their will. Those who want to go home must be able to do so safely and without delay, with arrangements in place to ensure safe crew changes and the continued operation of vessels.

「ITF正与船东和业界伙伴紧密合作，为海员渡过这场危机提供支援。我们会确保他们的声音被听见，并将他们的诉求直接传达给各国政府和业界，以寻求切实可行的解决方案，保护海员和航运业的利益。
“The ITF is working closely with shipowners and our industry partners, to support seafarers through this crisis. We are making sure their voices are heard and are bringing their demands directly to governments and industry to secure practical solutions that protect seafarers and the industry.”

在会议期间，海湾国家驻国际海事组织代表重点强调了几个问题，包括各自政府已经开始并将继续尽一切努力支持海员，强调必须齐心协力，确保船上的海员和乘客都不会感到被遗弃。
During the meeting the representatives of the Gulf States to the IMO highlighted several issues. Including that their respective governments have already begun and will continue to do everything in their capacity to support seafarers, emphasising the importance of concerted efforts to ensure that neither seafarers nor passengers onboard ships feel abandoned.

他们也强调，当前情况与初期阶段有所不同，因此需要采取不同的措施。他们同时确认，海湾合作委员会（Gulf Cooperation Council, GCC）成员国将为无法离开海湾地区的船舶提供后勤支持，船员换班也不会遇到困难。
They also highlighted that the current phase is different from the initial stages, and as such requires different measures. They also confirmed that logistical support will be implemented across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) States for ships that are unable to leave the Gulf region, and that crew changes will not face difficulties.

如果船员合约或医疗证明到期，海湾合作委员会成员国可能会采取类似新冠疫情期间采取的特殊措施，以改善海员处境。
In cases where crew contracts or medical certificates expire, it was indicated that the GCC States may resort to exceptional measures like those taken during the Covid-19 pandemic to facilitate seafarers’ situation.

此外，他们强调必需与IMO及其秘书长密切合作，在特别会议(36)的决议下，确保建立安全的海上走廊，用于疏散船只，保证海员的安全，并在海峡恢复航行。
Moreover, they stressed the need to work closely with the IMO and its Secretary-General, under the auspices of the resolutions of its Extraordinary Session (36), to ensure the establishment of a safe maritime corridor for the evacuation of ships, guarantee the safety of seafarers, and resume navigation in the Strait.

国际运输工人联盟-联合谈判小组共同声明：指定霍尔木兹海峡为战争易发区域/Joint ITF–JNG Statement: Designation of Warlike Operations Area in the Strait of Hormuz

国际运输工人联盟-联合谈判小组共同声明：指定霍尔木兹海峡为战争易发区域
Joint ITF–JNG Statement: Designation of Warlike Operations Area in the Strait of Hormuz

国际运输工人联盟（International Transport Workers’ Federation, ITF）和联合谈判小组（Joint Negotiating Group, JNG）作为国际协商论坛（International Bargaining Forum, IBF）的社会伙伴，在三月五日IBF战争行动地区委员会（IBF Warlike Operations Area Committee, IBF WOAC）审查后，同意将霍尔木兹海峡、阿曼湾和波斯湾指定为战争易发区（Warlike Operations Area, WOA）。
The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) and the Joint Negotiating Group (JNG), as the social partners of the International Bargaining Forum (IBF), agree to designate the Strait of Hormuz, Gulf of Oman and Persian Gulf as a Warlike Operations Area (WOA) following a review on 5 March by the IBF Warlike Operations Area Committee (WOAC).

霍尔木兹海峡、阿曼湾和波斯湾于3月2日被定为高风险区域，短期内风险级别再被提升，反映了该地区海员和船舶持续面临日益严峻的威胁。由于霍尔木兹海峡的航运中断，数百艘船舶滞留在波斯湾，突显了该地区平民船员所面临的混乱程度和风险。
The designation upgrades the High Risk Area designation applied to the Strait of Hormuz, Gulf of Oman and Persian Gulf on 2 March and reflects the continuing and heightened threat to seafarers and vessels operating in the region. Hundreds of vessels are stranded in the Gulf following the halt of vessel movements through the Strait of Hormuz, highlighting the scale of disruption and risk facing civilian crews in the region.

WOA（战争易发区）的划定确保在IBF（国际协商论坛）承保船舶上工作的海员，如果滞留或在该区域作业，将获得更完善的保护和补偿。已在指定区域内的海员有权获得额外补偿并要求遣返，同时需考虑到当前严峻的作业困难；而奉命进入该区域的海员则有权拒绝出海，并要求公司承担遣返费用。
The WOA designation ensures that seafarers on IBF-covered vessels receive enhanced protections and compensation if they are stranded or operating in the area. Seafarers already within the designated area are entitled to additional compensation and to request repatriation, noting the current, significant operational difficulties, while those instructed to enter it have the right to refuse to sail and request repatriation at the company’s expense.

根據 IBF 各方達成的協議條款，在指定 WOA 區域內或進入該區域的船舶上服務的海員將享有以下保護：
Under the terms agreed by the IBF parties, seafarers serving on vessels within or entering the designated WOA will be entitled to the following protections:

– 奖金相当于基本工资的100%，至少支付五天，船舶在该区域停留的每一天都会额外获得奖金。
A bonus equal to 100% of basic wage, payable for a minimum of five days, and for each additional day a vessel remains in the area.
– 对于该地区发生的事故造成的死亡和伤残，赔偿金额翻倍。
Doubled compensation for death and disability arising from incidents in the area.
– 海员有权拒绝驶入该区域，公司将承担遣返费用，并给予相当于两个月基本工资的补偿。
The right for seafarers to refuse to sail into the area, with repatriation at the company’s cost and compensation equal to two months’ basic wage.
– 建议船舶经营者实施相当于 ISPS 3 级的强化安保措施。
A recommendation for ship operators to implement enhanced security arrangements equivalent to ISPS Level 3.

这些规定反映了根据 IBF 协议对途经战区海员适用的标准保护措施。
These provisions reflect the standard protections applied to seafarers transiting Warlike Operations Areas under IBF agreements.

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）和联合谈判小组（JNG）强调，海员的安全和福祉必须永远放在第一位。保护海员最安全的途径是尽快缓和局势，回归以外交途径解决分歧。目前，该地区大部分国际空域的关闭也严重限制了海员离船后的遣返选择，进一步突显维护稳定和安全航行的迫切需求。
The ITF and JNG emphasise that the safety and welfare of seafarers must remain paramount. The safest way to protect seafarers is through de-escalation and a return to diplomacy. At present, the closure of international airspace across the majority of the region is also severely constraining repatriation options for seafarers seeking to leave vessels, further underlining the urgent need for stability and safe passage.

在指定区域内或附近作业的海员应保持警惕，并向其公司或工会寻求有关自身权利和选择的指引──同时明白到，由于航空旅行的限制和瞬息万变的安全形势，遣返将有一定难度。船东和操作员将尽一切努力协助海员遣返，并采取一切可行的措施来保障船员安全。
Seafarers operating in or near the designated area should remain vigilant and seek guidance from their companies or unions regarding their rights and options – while recognising that repatriation will be difficult due to restrictions and limitations on air travel and the rapidly evolving security situation. Shipowners and operators will make every effort to facilitate repatriation and take all available measures to safeguard crews,

霍尔木兹海峡是世界上战略意义最重要的海上通道之一，全球大部分能源和大宗商品贸易运输都要经过那里，因此该地区的和平与稳定对于海员安全和全球贸易都至关重要。
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most strategically important maritime routes in the world, through which a significant share of global energy and commodity trade passes, making peace and stability in the region critical for both seafarer safety and global trade.

战争行动地区委员会将持续每周审查战争易发区域的划定。
The Warlike Operations Area designation will remain under weekly review by the WOAC.

各国政府必须立即采取行动保护海员 /Governments must act now to protect seafarers

各国政府必须立即采取行动保护海员
Governments must act now to protect seafarers

国际运输工人联盟(ITF) 在国际海事组织召开紧急会议后，要求立即采取行动
ITF demands immediate action after emergency meeting at International Maritime Organization

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）呼吁各国政府立即采取具体、协调一致的行动来保护海员。此前，国际海事组织（IMO）理事会第36届特别会议三月十九日于伦敦举行。
The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) is calling on governments to take immediate, concrete and concerted action to protect seafarers, following the 36th extraordinary session of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Council held in London on 19 March.

会后，ITF秘书长Stephen Cotton表示：「世界已经认识到被困在霍尔木兹海峡附近的海员，正面临着严重危险 – 现在各国政府必须采取行动。
Speaking after the meeting, ITF General Secretary Stephen Cotton said: “The world has recognised the grave danger facing seafarers trapped near the Strait of Hormuz – now governments must act.

「对于仍被困在该地区、每天都面临生命威胁的数千名海员来说，光说不做是不够的。现在最重要的是采取紧急、切实可行的行动，保障他们的安全、健康和尊严。」
“For the thousands of seafarers still trapped in this region, facing daily threats to their lives, words are not enough. What matters now is urgent, practical action that safeguards their safety, health and dignity.”

这次特别会议旨在解决波斯湾、阿曼湾、阿拉伯海，特别是霍尔木兹海峡日益升级的危机。在这些地区，海员们持续面临船只遇袭、航行安全面临严重风险以及基本物资短缺的困境。
The extraordinary session was convened to address the escalating crisis in Persian Gulf, Gulf of Oman, the Arabian Sea, and particularly the Strait of Hormuz, where seafarers continue to face attacks on vessels, serious risks to safe navigation, and worrying shortages of essential supplies.

ITF常驻IMO代表Lydia Ferrad在向IMO理事会提交的报告中警告说，该地区船员的处境仍然十分危险：「这不是一场抽象的地缘政治危机，而是一场海上人道主义危机。有海员已经丧生，又有人受伤，还有成千上万的海员被困船上，生活在惶恐、疲惫和前路茫茫之中。我们每天都接获船员求助电话，担心自己能否平安回家。」
Lydia Ferrad, ITF Permanent Representative to the IMO, warned in her intervention to the IMO Council that the situation remains perilous for crews in the area: “This is not an abstract geopolitical crisis – it is a human crisis at sea. Seafarers have been killed. Others have been injured. Thousands remain stranded onboard vessels in conditions of fear, fatigue and uncertainty. We are receiving daily distress calls from crews who do not know if they will make it home.”

ITF强调该地区海员面临的现实情况，包括船舶一旦遇袭造成的生命直接威胁、导航系统中断、食物、水、燃料和医疗物资短缺，以及船员换班和遣返方面均严重受限。
The ITF highlighted the reality facing seafarers in the region, including direct threats to life from attacks on ships, disruption to navigation systems, limited access to food, water, fuel and medical care, and severe restrictions on crew change and repatriation.

Lydia Ferrad说：「海员是平民劳动者。他们不是这场冲突的参与者 — 他们的生命更绝不能被视为轻于鸿毛。」
“Seafarers are civilian workers. They are not parties to this conflict — and they must never be treated as expendable,” said Ferrad.

ITF强调，在IMO会议期间所作的承诺、要求和呼吁，必须转化为具体的行动，以保障海员的生命、健康和福祉。
The ITF stressed that the commitments, demands and calls made during the IMO session must now be translated into concrete action that safeguards seafarers’ lives, health and wellbeing.

Stephen Cotton在肯定会议成果的同时，强调海员迫切需要保护。
While recognising the outcomes of the meeting, Cotton underlined that seafarers urgently need protection.

「我们欢迎海湾国家承诺，确保向该地区的船舶提供基本生活物资，及为方便海员换班和遣返所作的努力。
“We welcome the commitment from Gulf states to ensure the provision of essential supplies to vessels in the region, as well as their efforts to facilitate crew change and repatriation for seafarers.

「但其中一点需要明确指出：各国政府的重点必须是保护无辜的平民海员。正如我们在会议上所说，所有船旗国必须立即向船东和船舶经营者发出明确无误的讯息，要求他们避免航向或途经战区。任何海员都不应被迫穿越冲突地区。
“But let’s be absolutely clear: the focus of all governments must be the protection of innocent, civilian seafarers. As we said during the meeting, all flag states must immediately issue clear and unambiguous notices to shipowners and operators to avoid sailing to, or transiting through, the war zone. No seafarer should be placed in a position where they are expected to navigate through active conflict.”

IMO理事会鼓励建立一条「海上走廊」，以紧急疏散海湾地区的海员和船舶。 IMO秘书长将与相关各方合作，启动这项工作。
The IMO Council encouraged the establishment of a ‘maritime corridor’ to facilitate the safe evacuation of seafarers and vessels from the Gulf region as an urgent measure. The IMO Secretary-General will now work with relevant parties to initiate this.

Stephen Cotton表示：「ITF支持建立安全的海上疏散通道，前提是这些通道能够实际保证真正安全，而不仅仅是在理论上安全。
“The ITF supports the development of safe evacuation maritime corridors if they are guaranteed to be genuinely safe in practice, not just in principle,” said Cotton.

海员不应被要求承担更大的生命风险。
Seafarers must not be asked to face further risks to their lives.”

海员们，我们与你共渡难关/ Seafarers, we stand with you in this time of crisis

海员们，我们与你共渡难关
Seafarers, we stand with you in this time of crisis

身处波斯湾和阿曼湾的海员，生命安全正面临日益严峻的风险，世界各地的海事工会和雇主已做好准备，为他们提供适切的保护和支持。
As seafarers in the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman face escalating risks to their lives, maritime unions and employers worldwide stand ready to offer protection and support

海员们，你们并不孤单：整个海事行业与你们并肩同行 — 这是来自世界各地海事工会和雇主向海员们发出的共同讯息。
Seafarers, you are not alone: the maritime industry stands with you – that is the joint message to seafarers from maritime unions and employers from around the world.

波斯湾和阿曼湾针对商船的攻击事件愈演愈烈。曾在48小时内，霍尔木兹海峡有至少六艘货船遭到炮弹攻击，阿联酋海岸附近也有一艘货柜船遇袭。
Attacks on merchant ships have intensified in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. At least six cargo vessels were hit by projectiles in the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours, with a container ship also hit off the coast of the UAE.

国际谈判论坛（IBF）– 由国际运输工人联盟（ITF）和国际海事雇主组成的联合谈判小组 — 三月初采取果断行动，将波斯湾指定为「战争行动区」，启动了对已签订IBF协议船舶上的保护海员措施，包括他们可行使拒绝在该区域航行的权利、提高工资和赔偿，同时强烈建议雇主加强保安安排。
The International Bargaining Forum (IBF) – which brings together the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) and the international maritime employers that make up the Joint Negotiating Group – acted decisively in early March to designate the Persian Gulf as a ‘Warlike Operations Area’, activating protections for seafarers on ships with IBF agreements, including the right to refuse to sail in the area, enhanced pay and compensation, alongside a strong recommendation for employers to enhance security arrangements.

至三月中， IBF同意扩大对海员的保护范围，将东地中海以色列海岸外12海里范围内的区域（包括港口和锚地）划定为「扩展风险区」。这意味着海员将享有额外的保护，例如一旦船舶遭到袭击，他们将获得相当于基本工资的奖金；如海员死亡或伤残，他们的赔偿金亦将翻倍。
As of mid-March, the IBF agreed to extend protections for seafarers by demarcating the area extending 12 miles off the coast of Israel in the eastern Mediterranean, including ports and anchorage areas, an ‘Extended Risk Zone’. This means that seafarers are entitled to additional protections, including a bonus equal to their basic wage payable if their vessel is attacked and doubled compensation for death or disability.

自战争爆发以来，ITF每天都接获该地区的海员查询和求助，内容包括遣返事宜，以及他们拒绝继续航行的权利。尽管不少交通基础设施遭到袭击，该地区国际空域亦遭封锁，交通运输严重困难，但部分航运公司仍有方法将海员安全遣返回国。
Every day since the start of the war, the ITF has received requests for advice and assistance from seafarers in the region, including on repatriation and their right to refuse to sail. Despite severe operational difficulties due to attacks on wider transport infrastructure and the closure of international airspace across the region, some shipping companies have managed to repatriate seafarers back home to safety.

国际海事雇主理事会（IMEC）主席Simon Spacey表示：「世界对海上贸易，尤其是对维持贸易顺畅运转的海员之依赖，从未像现在这样清晰可见，因为这场战争对全球经济的影响正开始全面呈现。正值冲突时期，不少人提出理由和解释 — 但令人无法接受的是，无辜的海员发现自己身陷险境，危机迫近。
Simon Spacey, Chairman of the International Maritime Employers’ Council (IMEC) said: “The world’s dependence on maritime trade and in particular on the seafarers that keep that trade moving smoothly has never been clearer than it is now, as the impact that this war is having on the global economy starts to fully reveal itself. There are many reasons for, and justifications given, in times of such conflict – but what is unacceptable is that once again innocent seafarers find themselves trapped inside an area of conflict not of their making where they face genuine danger.

因此，我们呼吁人人都应该认识到海员们正面临的实际危险，并尽一切努力保护和支持他们。令人欣慰的是，我们知道海员们坚韧不拔，负责任的雇主们亦正与工会伙伴日以继夜地合作，确保海员们获得一切必要的保护，并在可行的情况下，确保他们享有遣返权利。但目前，现实情况是，在极其危险的环境下，要确保旅程安全机会极之渺茫，因此我们建议雇主和海员尽可能远离该区域。」
“We therefore call on everyone, everywhere to recognise the very real danger our seafarers are facing and to do whatever can be done to protect and support them. On a positive note, we know that our seafarers are a tough and hardy bunch and that responsible employers are working around the clock with our trade union partners to ensure that seafarers receive every protection and, where possible, compliance with the repatriation rights we offer them. But right now, the reality is that this is an extremely dangerous environment, safe travel opportunities are severely limited, and therefore our advice is for employers and seafarers to stay away from this area where possible.”

国际运输工人联盟海员分会主席David Heindel表示：「已有平民海员丧生，而成千上万被困在该地区的海员，每时每刻都生活在恐惧之中，担心他们的船只可能成为下一个目标 — 这种情况不能再继续下去了。
ITF Seafarers’ Section Chair David Heindel said: “Civilian seafarers have already lost their lives, while many thousands of seafarers who are trapped in the region are spending every waking moment living in fear that their vessel could be the next target – this cannot go on.

我们要求船旗国加大力度，履行保护船上人员安全的义务，这是你们的责任。同时，致波斯湾和阿曼湾的每一位海员：请记住，我们与你们并肩同行，随时准备提供一切力所能及的帮助。如果您需要支援，请联络您的国际运输工人联盟（ITF）属会、ITF、ITF检查员或您的雇主，我们将尽一切努力保护和支持您。」
“To flag states, we demand that you step up and do more to fulfil your obligations to protect those on your ships, this is your responsibility. To every seafarer in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, know this: we stand shoulder to shoulder with you, and we are on hand to do everything we can. If you need help, reach out to your ITF-affiliated union, to the ITF itself, an ITF inspector, or your employer, and we will do what we can to protect and support you.”

遗弃海员危机：航运业史上最严峻数千人被遗弃 /SEAFARER ABANDONMENT CRISIS: THOUSANDS LEFT BEHIND IN SHIPPING’S WORST YEAR ON RECORD

遗弃海员危机：航运业史上最严峻数千人被遗弃
SEAFARER ABANDONMENT CRISIS: THOUSANDS LEFT BEHIND IN SHIPPING’S WORST YEAR ON RECORD

国际运输工人联盟（ITF）数据显示，船舶和海员被遗弃事件不断恶化，达到历史上最严重水平。其中印度海员受影响最大，2025年被遗弃的海员总数超过6,000人，包括逾1,000名印度海员。)
(ITF data shows spiraling ship and seafarer abandonment at worst ever levels – Indian seafarers worst affected with more than 1,000 abandoned out of a total of more than 6,000 abandoned seafarers in 2025.

根据国际运输工人联盟（ITF）最新汇编的数据，2025年海员遗弃事件达到历史性新高，410艘船舶上共有6223名海员被遗弃。
Seafarer abandonment hit record levels in 2025, according to new data compiled by the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF), with 6,223 seafarers abandoned across 410 ships.

遗弃海员危机迫在眉睫，数据显示，船舶遗弃数量连续第六年创纪录，被遗弃海员总数亦连续第四年创新高：与2024年相比，船舶遗弃数量增加了31%，海员遗弃数量增加了32%。
Seafarer abandonment is in crisis, with the data marking the sixth year in a row that the number of vessels on which abandonments occurred has broken records and the fourth year in a row that the total number of seafarers abandoned has broken records: the numbers represent a 31% increase in such ship abandonments compared to 2024, and a 32% increase in seafarer abandonment.

ITF的数据，将以报告的形式提交国际海事组织（IMO），供其在今年的法律委员会会议上讨论。数据显示，由于船舶遗弃事件，2025年海员共被拖欠2,580万美元。 ITF已从中追回并发还1,650万美元给受影响海员。
ITF data, which will be submitted in a report to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) ahead of its discussion at a legal committee meeting this year, also shows that seafarers were owed a total of USD25.8 million in 2025 as a consequence of the abandonments. From this total, the ITF has recovered and returned USD16.5 million to seafarers.

ITF海员部主席David Heindel表示：「令人愤慨的是，我们再次看到创纪录数量的海员被无良船东遗弃。
It’s nothing short of a disgrace that, yet again, we are seeing record numbers of seafarers abandoned by unscrupulous ship owners,” said David Heindel, Chair of the ITF Seafarers’ Section.

每天，世界各地的海员都面临人权和劳动权利遭受严重侵犯的困境，而这一切都是因为那些唯利是图的公司从中牟取暴利。很明显，这是航运业的系统性问题──这意味我们需要整个行业与海员及其工会团结起来，共同发出『够了！』的呐喊，并采取共同行动来结束这场危机。」
“Every day, all around the world, seafarers face horrific violations of their human and labour rights, all so that bottom-feeding companies can make a quick buck at their expense. It’s very clear that this is a systemic issue in the industry – and that means we need the entire industry to come together with seafarers and their unions to say, ‘enough is enough’, and take action together to end this crisis.”

IMO根据三项标准定义海员遭遗弃：未能支付海员遣返费用；使海员缺乏必要的生活用品和支持；单方面切断与海员的联系，包括至少两个月未支付合约工资。 IMO和国际劳工组织（ILO）共同运作一个海员遗弃资料库：去年发生的410宗遗弃事件中，ITF报告了400宗（占98%）。
Seafarer abandonment is defined by the IMO under three criteria: failing to cover the cost of a seafarer’s repatriation; leaving a seafarer without necessary maintenance and support; unilaterally severing ties with a seafarer, including failure to pay contractual wages for a period of at least two months. The IMO and the International Labour Organization (ILO) run a joint seafarer abandonment database: of 410 abandonments last year, the ITF reported 400 (98 percent).

海员国籍及弃船地点
Seafarer nationalities, abandonment locations

与2024年一样，印度海员在2025年也是受影响最严重的国家民族，共有1125名海员被遗弃。 2025年底，印度政府宣布将采取「黑名单」措施，以保护海员避免在有多次遗弃和其他不良行为记录的船舶上工作。
Indian seafarers were the worst affected national group in 2025, as in 2024, with 1,125 seafarers abandoned – at the end of 2025, the Indian Government announced that ‘blacklisting’ measures would be taken to protect seafarers from ships with a record of repeat abandonments and other bad practices.

菲律宾海员受影响程度位居第二，共有539人遭遗弃，其次是叙利亚海员，有309人遭遗弃。
Filipino seafarers were the second worst affected, with 539 abandoned, followed by Syrians with 309 abandoned.

发生弃船情况最严重的地区是中东，其次是欧洲。弃船数量最多的两个国家——即最多遗弃船舶地点——分别是土耳其（61艘）和阿拉伯联合大公国（54艘），这两个国家发生的弃船数量，均显著高于其他国家。
The worst region for abandonment was the Middle East, followed by Europe. The two countries where most ship abandonments took place – the countries with the highest number of vessels on which abandonments occurred – both of which have significantly higher abandonments than any other country, were Türkiye (61) and the United Arab Emirates (54).

方便旗/Flags of Convenience

悬挂方便旗的船舶在弃船事件中占显著地位：2025年被遗弃的船舶中，有337艘悬挂方便旗，占总数的82%。 ITF估计，全球约10万艘商船中，约有30%悬挂方便旗。
Flag of Convenience (FOCs) vessels feature prominently in abandonment: 337 vessels abandoned in 2025 – 82% of the total – were flying FOC flags. The ITF estimates that around 30% of the entire 100,000-strong global fleet of merchant vessels fly FOCs.

与2024年一样，巴拿马（方便旗国）仍然是弃船事故最多的船旗国（68宗，高于去年的43宗），而悬挂未知船旗的弃船事故数量则增加了一倍多（46宗，高于去年的20宗）。
As in 2024, Panama, an FOC, remains the Flag State with the most abandonments (68, up from 43), while the number of abandonments under an unknown flag have more than doubled (46, up from 20).

ITF开展反方便旗船运动已有75年多，并长期警告称，方便旗制度威胁海员权益，并助长非法活动。近几周来，ITF针对频密转换船旗的影子船队油轮，进行连串行动，加深大众对此问题认识。
The ITF has run a campaign on FOCs for more than 75 years and has long warned of the threat to seafarers’ rights and the illegal and illicit activities enabled by the FOC system. This has become more widely understood in recent weeks through operations undertaken against flag-switching shadow fleet tankers.

ITF秘书长 Stephen Cotton表示：「究竟还要有多少海员遭受遗弃的痛苦，我们才能看到必要的变革，从而终结这种可耻的做法？
ITF General Secretary Stephen Cotton said: “How many more seafarers have to be put through the misery of abandonment until we see the changes that we know are needed to end this disgraceful practice?

「2025年，我们再次见证了海员弃船事故数量创历史新高。但这不仅仅是数字，这些是活生生的人——是那些维持我们经济运转的工人——他们被迫陷入绝境，远离家乡，而且往往前路茫茫，看不到明确出路。
“In 2025, we’ve yet again seen the worst year on record for seafarer abandonment. But this isn’t just a story about numbers, these are the people – the workers – who keep our economy moving forward being forced into absolutely desperate situations, far from home and often without any clear resolution in sight.

「正如我们一直强调的，解决遗弃问题的方案在于航运业的问责制，需要确保船东无法逃避责任。IMO必须被赋予更大的权力，使其可以在消除弃船现象方面，发挥更大的协调作用。」
“As we’ve long said, the solutions to abandonment lie in accountability in the shipping industry ensuring that ship owners can’t dodge their responsibilities. The International Maritime Organization must be given more power to play a coordinating role in eradicating abandonment.”

ITF呼吁采取以下措施解决海员遗弃问题：
The ITF is calling for the following steps to be taken to tackle seafarer abandonment:

• 强制船旗国登记船舶的实质船东资讯（包括联络方式），作为船舶登记的先决条件。
Flag States to be compelled to log a ship’s beneficial owner, including contact details, as a pre-condition for registration

• 参考印度海事总局的做法，将屡次发生遗弃海员事件的船舶列入国家黑名单，以保护海员免受其害。
National blacklisting of ships to protect seafarers from ships with repeated involvement in abandonment cases, following the lead of India’s DG Shipping
• 政府应调查方便旗的使用情况，目前美国正在进行相关调查。
Government investigations into the use of Flags of Convenience, as is currently underway in the USA

案例研究：Eleen Armonia号
Case study: the Eleen Armonia

四名印度海员被遗弃，其中一人向ITF讲述目前困境。这名海员与同僚自去年6月以来，一直被困在尼日利亚海岸附近的Eleen Armonia号上，至今未收到任何工资——ITF已于2025年8月将该船列为弃船。尽管他们多次提出申诉，且合约已到期，但船公司Eleen Marine仍未安排他们回国，但其他船员已经「放船」回家。
One Indian seafarer who is currently abandoned alongside three other Indian crew spoke to the ITF about his ongoing ordeal. The seafarer and three of his crew mates have been aboard the ship, the Eleen Armonia, off the coast of Nigeria, since June without receiving pay – the ITF filed the ship as abandoned in August 2025. Despite repeated appeals and the expiration of contracts, they have not been repatriated by the ship owner – Eleen Marine – despite seeing other crew members ‘signing off’ to go home.

「每个月我们都要求公司支付工资并让我们回家，但他们根本不在乎。我们联系了许多机构，包括ITF，他们都在努力帮助我们，但现在看来，恐怕只有公司可以决定我们何时回家。」这位海员说。
“Every month we’ve asked the company to pay our wages and send us home, but they don’t care. We’re in touch with many authorities, including the ITF, who are trying to help us, but right now it feels like we will only go home when the company decides,” the seafarer said.

「这里的情况比地狱还糟糕！公司不断给我们空头支票，他们大概答应过我们十次可以回家，结果什么也没发生。船舶保险公司去年12月联系我们，说由于我们的工资已经拖欠两个多月，他们会介入并帮助我们办理离境手续。但后来他们又说还在等公司批准，而公司已经一个星期没有回覆了。」
“The situation here is worse than hell. We keep hearing false promises from the company, it’s maybe 10 times that they’ve promised us we can go home, then nothing. The ship’s insurer contacted us in December and said that since our wages have been pending for more than two months they would get involved and help us sign off. But then they said they are still waiting for company permission, and the company hasn’t replied for a week.”

他补充说：「现在我每天都因为压力而失眠，如果这种情况持续下去，我真的不知道我的健康会受到怎样的影响。我当初之所以匆忙加入这艘船，是因为这份工作合约后，意味着我可以和我刚出生的女儿，以及家人一起过圣诞节和新年——现在我错过了圣诞节、新年和一个重要的家庭活动。作为海员，我们受到这样的对待，真的是其耻大辱。」
He added: “It’s become a daily routine for me that I can’t sleep from stress, and if this continues, I honestly don’t know how it will affect my health. I joined this vessel quickly because the assignment meant I could spend Christmas and New Year with my new daughter and family – I have now missed Christmas, New Year and an important family event. As seafarers, it feels really shameful that we’re treated this way.”

2025年初， ITF的一份报告详细披露了Eleen Marine公司与在斯洛维尼亚注册的假工会「国际海员联盟」（ISU）之间的关系。 ISU与Lanibra公司同时成立并协同运营，后者向船东出售反工会服务。这意味着ISU违反了禁止雇主「干预」工会运作的国际法和国内法律。
Earlier in 2025, an ITF report detailed Eleen Marine’s relationship with the Slovenia-registered sham union, the ‘International Seafarers’ Union’ (ISU). ISU was established alongside and operates in tandem with the company, Lanibra, which sells anti-union services to ship owners. This means ISU violates international and national laws that forbid ‘interference’ by employers in a union.

据了解，Eleen Marine从ISU-Lanibra购买的协议已于6月到期，且未续约。
Agreements Eleen Marine purchased from ISU-Lanibra are believed to have expired in June and have not been renewed.

为保护海员身份，其姓名不会披露。海员们担心公开事件，会遭到雇主报复和被列入黑名单
The seafarer’s name has not been used to protect his identity. Seafarers fear reprisals and blacklisting by employers for speaking out.
