This is pretty much it. They say the shipping companies’ profits have skyrocketed in recent years and that their wages have been stagnating, so they’re looking for a large pay raise to both take the high profits into account, and to account for inflation. Seems very reasonable to me.
If they turned down a 50% pay increase they must currently be paid shit. I am sure the CEO is more than fairly compensated, they should be too.
