Abstract

This paper presents a social study on the maritime port of Montreal investigating the spread of social inclusion in the maritime industry. We used both qualitative and quantitative methods, including structural equation modeling to answer the research questions. Our findings show that the spread of social inclusion was significant in the port in terms of workplace diversity and inclusion, the workplace environment, and the port’s responsibility toward society. These findings highlight specific factors that are currently being overlooked and thus require greater industry collaboration. The proposed framework also serves as a tool for a single maritime port to self-assess its current stage of sustainable development, with implications for future social-inclusion implementation strategies.

社会包容在航运业的传播:一项社会研究

本文提出了一项关于蒙特利尔海港的社会研究，调查了海运业中社会包容的传播。我们采用定性和定量相结合的方法，包括结构方程建模来回答研究问题。我们的研究结果表明，在工作场所的多样性和包容性、工作场所环境和港口对社会的责任方面，社会包容在港口的传播是显著的。这些发现突出了目前被忽视的具体因素，因此需要加强行业合作。拟议的框架还可以作为单一海港自我评估其当前可持续发展阶段的工具，对未来的社会包容实施战略产生影响。

期刊介绍： Issues of governance, responsibility and accountability are becoming increasingly important as the world, simultaneously, becomes dominated by corporations, interconnected via forces of globalisation and transparent through heightened media attention and the rise in internet-led democracy. Companies, and in particular leaders of business, can no longer hide from their responsibilities to wider stakeholder community by claims of ignorance of corporate malpractices and of failure. Boards of directors are being increasingly made responsible for both the successes and failures of their companies, as well as their own conduct and behaviours. Actions of business have increasingly become a concern not just for shareholders but also for the wider community at large.
