Social dumping – using highly vulnerable workers to do skilled work for low pay - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Subsea 7

Since the start of the downturn in the Oil & Gas Industry Subsea 7 have been heavily involved in crude social dumping of Seafarers and Project crew, they have and continue to use the downturn as an excuse to treat their crews very badly despite increased profits over the same periods. Many ships crews have been replaced with cheaper less qualified personnel, many project personnel including senior dive technicians were made redundant and taking on again as Jnr Techs on lower day rate pay. Since merging with Acergy, the company has become top heavy with management and the workers are being used and abused to pay their inflated wages.
