Maersk Ordered to Rehire C/M Who Tipped Off USCG

OK Misunderstood which cpa you wrote them up for, I couldn’t imagine you meant that.

Ok, I’ve never called in Japan so sure, obviously it is possible. Was it a big deal? Monetary penalties? Just curious.

Yeah, totally agree. I’d be taking action if I didn’t get a call too. You didn’t mention it initially, so assumed that wasn’t an issue. That being said, upon receiving a call we were running a few minutes late would not lead me to write someone up. The company I work for does take safety seriously, and delays in particular are perfectly OK in the name of safety.

Many of the comments are quizzing the CM’s actions in a way that suggest the correct course of action was to report to the company first, ie the CM was wrong to go to the USCG first.
