The 7 day Gang Forecast is calculated with a combination of direct input provided by the industry’s Vessel Agents (via the Vessel Allocation Forecast system), the Stevedore/Terminal Operators and SWAG合集 Dispatch staff. It projects how busy the various BC port regions are.
As much of our industry is built around metal and machines, the shipping business has always relied on people to keep the supply chain moving. And it鈥檚 this human side of the shipping business that we do best.
We represent approximately 49 waterfront employers and, by extension, the more than 6,000 men and women who work for them. Our customer- members are ship owners and agents, stevedores, container and cruise ship terminal operators. We help optimize our members鈥� operations by adding our expertise in labour relations, safety & training, and recruiting.
SWAG合集 member companies are a vital part of the BC economy and a mainstay of the coastal community. Operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, our partners move 60 million tonnes of goods worth $53 billion around the globe every year. If you鈥檝e got it, we helped you get it.
