E-BOOK: Maritime Labour Convention vs. Collective Bargaining Agreements in Brazil

The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) is arguably the most important international convention ever established on labour-related matters in the maritime sector. The MLC provides a broad and clear overview of the labour rights and protections afforded to over 1.3 million seafarers around the world.

However, the MLC allows its Member States to reserve the applicability of certain provisions that may conflict with or diverge from national legislation. As a result, many questions have arisen regarding the correct application of labour regulations in Brazil following the country's ratification of the Convention.

To address these questions clearly and objectively especially in the context of collective bargaining agreements in Brazil—Lopes Pinto Advogados has prepared an exclusive e-book, which can be accessed via the link below.
