Australian Authorities Impose Six-Month Ban on Bulk Carrier Over Labour Violations

May 06, 2026 23:05

The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) has taken decisive action by imposing a six-month ban on the bulk carrier 'FPMC B Forever', operated by Formosa Plastics Marine Corporation (FPMC), due to serious breaches of the Maritime Labour Convention. This marks the third instance in under two months where AMSA has barred a vessel from Australian waters, underscoring a stringent approach to maritime labour regulations. The recent ban, effective until October 4, 2026, follows an inspection on April 23 at the Port of Newcastle. AMSA inspectors uncovered alarming evidence that the crew members had been underpaid, with a total of nearly A$15,000 (approximately US$10,853) owed to them. Furthermore, it was revealed that the crew was being charged for access to potable water, violating established MLC guidelines. This latest action reflects AMSA's ongoing commitment to enhancing the welfare of seafarers and ensuring compliance with international maritime standards. The repeated enforcement of such bans serves as a clear warning to shipping operators regarding their responsibilities in upholding the rights and well-being of their crew.
