Pandemic delivers Maersk record profit but falls short in revenue sharing

RECORD profits being announced recently by shipping giant AP Moller-Maersk risk not being shared fairly with workers who delivered the company its historic results unless Maersk leadership take stronger action to rein in anti-union practices within Svitzer, the company's tug division.

Unions representing workers across Maersk's supply chain addressed shareholders at the group's AGM in Copenhagen on the company's labor rights performance over the past year.
