en.Wedoany.com Reported - Fundación Mascarona and ChileValora have signed a cooperation agreement to jointly promote skills recognition and professional certification for maritime workers. This collaboration was reached during the seminar "New Coastal Trade Law: Processes, Perspectives, and Interests in Regulatory Development," hosted by Fundación Mascarona.

The agreement aims to strengthen training, employability, and the recognition of strategic trades and functions in national maritime activities, building a more formal, safer, and more recognized career path for workers. Raquel Mesa, President of Fundación Mascarona, stated that this cooperation agreement on creating competency standards for maritime positions is a milestone, with both parties having worked for over a year to develop these standards. Mesa noted that the goal is to help Chilean workers obtain certification through tools provided by the Ministry of Labor via ChileValora, thereby recognizing labor skills that are often overlooked. She also pointed out that currently, when foreign workers enter Chile, their certifications are indistinguishable from those of highly competent Chilean workers. The agreement aims to raise corporate standards so that crew members not only hold international certificates but also possess high-level labor skills, thereby offering companies a higher category positioning and creating better job opportunities for workers.
