A more thorough explanation:

MARITIME EMPLOYMENT

Maritime employment refers to jobs that are related to the loading, unloading, construction, or repair of a vessel. This is defined under the Longshoremen's and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act.

For example, a person who works at a port and is responsible for loading and unloading cargo from a ship is considered to be in maritime employment. Similarly, a person who works in a shipyard and is involved in the construction or repair of a vessel is also considered to be in maritime employment.

Maritime employment is a term used to describe jobs that are directly related to the maritime industry. These jobs involve working with ships, ports, and other aspects of the industry. The Longshoremen's and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act provides benefits to workers who are injured while working in these types of jobs. Examples of maritime employment include longshoremen, shipbuilders, and dockworkers.
