Commonwealth of Virginia, Port of Virginia Birthplace

The Commonwealth of Virginia, located along the East Atlantic Coast, has a rich and vibrant maritime history and is the birthplace of America’s first port. Today, the historic Port of Virginia remains at the forefront of international commerce and is one of the busiest ports along the Atlantic coast. Strategically located along the Chesapeake Bay, the Port of Virginia offers the convenience of direct access to railways, roadways, and airways reaching throughout the continental US. Major tenants taking advantage of the ports valuable location are CMA-CGM, Nissan Motor Company, and Zim-American Israeli Navigation Co. While the port’s convenient location is an appealing factor for many of the world’s top maritime companies, another attractive feature are the skilled and hardworking Virginians who make up the Port of Virginia’s workforce. Without the hard work and dedication of thousands of maritime workers, the Port of Virginia would cease to be a leader in international waterborne commerce.

Increase in Virginia Maritime Worker Injuries

With the continued growth and success of the Port of Virginia, there has also been an unfortunate increase in the number of injuries sustained by Virginia’s maritime workers. Every seaman has a right to work in a reasonably safe environment. Regrettably, this does not always happen. Long hours, fatigue, dangerous equipment, and hazardous materials are all factors that can cause serious injury or even death in the blink of an eye.
