Millenia Maritime Inc. vessels receive the ‘’EvoNews from Home’’

Shipping companies create a conceptual framework for improving employees’ satisfaction in which MLC’s requirements are followed and mostly employees take greater advantage of the received benefits. For that purpose Millenia Maritime Inc. has chosen to deliver daily news to all their seafarers with Evo News by Marpoint.

Millenia Maritime Inc., incorporated in 2006, is an international shipping company, based in Glyfada, Greece, with a fleet of seven modern, double-hull Handy-max Oil/Chemical tankers, engaged in the world-wide transportation of oil products. The fleet is employed with reputable charterers, servicing all the oil majors.

The safety and wellbeing of all seafarers should be the main priority for every shipping company. Seafarers dedicate themselves to life at sea, away from home, doing work that can often be challenging, lonely and even dangerous. These welfare provisions aim to promote individuals’ well-being as well as social development and team working.
