Description
On 31 January 2013, water transport company Brittany Ferries has announced to create 100 jobs in 2013. The expansion is due to the opening of a new line between Le Havre (France) and Portsmouth (UK) and a doubling of its freight transport between England and the Spanish ports of Santander and Bilbao.
Moreover, the management has concluded a collective agreement on the working time of seafarers and administrative staff.
