We would like to take this opportunity to reintroduce the Federation of Dredging Contractors to your organization.The Federation of Dredging Contractors was first formed in the City of London on Thursday 29th August 1946, to provide a forum to meet industry peers and discuss issues of mutual importance.
Since then the Federation has become a respected body which is consulted by Government on new legislation and is recognised as the dredging industry’s voice in consultation.
The aims of the Federation are to:
- To actively promote and protect the interests of the Federation, its Members and the UK dredging industry as a whole. This includes dialogue with Clients, Consultants and Authorities alike on issues where communication is required to serve the interests of all stakeholders and the environment;
- To actively provide input to institutions dealing with forms of contract, legislation, dispute resolution and standards to ascertain that the specific aspects of our dredging work are recognised and appreciated;
- To cooperate with other similar organisations, federations or associations to harmonize mutual interest and exchange views on how to improve relations with Clients;
- To represent the Members at events, conferences, meetings and seminars where dredging interests have to be supported;
- To actively promote our industry and work to (young) people who are interested in dredging by visiting universities, polytechnics and other venues where employment opportunities are offered; and
- To investigate and approach potential new members to cover the whole range of dredging contractors in the UK.
If you would like to talk to the Federation about any issues you may have or would like to find out more about which areas the Federation of Dredging Contractors is currently active, then please contact us via the address or website details above.
