Jobs Action
Article Abstract:
The marine industry is finally taking some serious steps to recruit & train workers in view of a critical shortage of skilled workers. Apart from some scattered attempts, there has been a lot talking, but now some concrete steps are being taken in a unified form. With the present work force moving to its retirement, and lack of new blood things are looking very bleak.
