In January, Maersk Tankers announced a new parental leave policy for their employees, enabling fathers with a paid four-week paternity leave; Nautilus now clarifies that the new policy concerns only the onshore crew of the company and not the crew onboard.
Specifically, Nautilus noted that seafarers employed by Maersk Tankers are excluded from the company’s new Parental Leave policy.
Contacting with a company’s spokesperson, Nautilus revealed that the policy is applicable to shore employees only.
