Foundation providing Pastoral Care to Workers in Dredging and Marine Construction Established in 1965
World of dredging is different from cargo shipping!
Care for the human being behind the worker “More than sand alone”
The Dredging pastor: * visits projects all over the world * is engaged after incidents * is open to every background and culture * is involved in training and education * listening ear for crew and staff
Supported by the Dutch Dredging Companies – Why?
* Social/Welfare policy
* First response when incidents happen * Independent “thermometer” * Reflection on issues
It is the responsibility of the maritime industry to care for their people!
