The goal of NAMEPA’s CSR/ESG programme is to evaluate an entity’s corporate governance, the environment and the human element activities. It provides resources to the maritime industry as a whole and to specific companies and individuals who strive to engage in industry best practices and play a role in creating a sustainable global environment, society and economy. Its six transparency pillars are used as a basis for assessing the sustainable practices.

“By qualifying for NAMEPA’s Maritime Sustainability Passport, MSC has demonstrated its commitment to stewardship of the environment, care for its employees, and responsible corporate governance,” stated NAMEPA’s Co-Founder/Executive Director Carleen Lyden Walker. “It comes as no surprise that MSC has qualified for our certification, as they consistently project best practices in their operations and areas of engagement. We offer them our sincerest congratulations.”
