Tech/Engineering - Ships, Sailing, Maritime / mano de carga
Spanish term or phrase: mano de carga
En operativos de buques / barcazas, se trabajan dos turnos de inspección consecutivos de 6 horas por inspector con descanso de 12 horas por inspector.
Para carga de contenedores / camiones se designa un inspector por mano de carga.
El cliente debe informar previamente las manos de carga.
Para el caso de contenedores la jornada finaliza una vez terminada la carga de contenedores.
Si la jornada de trabajo se extiende por más de 12 horas se debe disponer de relevos de los inspectores para que no excedan las 12 horas de trabajo.

Desde ya muchas gracias por la ayuda.

Explanation:
What Is a Ship Loader?
As a ship loader, your responsibilities are to load and unload cargo from a transportation vessel. Your duties also include the inspection of the moving equipment to make sure it is good repair before each job. This work requires precision to manage the logistics correctly and efficiently, and you usually work as a part of a team to move materials in a coordinated manner. Detailed and accurate record keeping is also necessary. Ship loaders in the boating industry use a variety of machines, ranging from cranes to conveyors to forklifts, so safety is imperative.

Stevedores, Longshoremen and Dockers - The MARE Report

[In later years, a wooden pallet would be used so that a small forklift could replace the use of hand trucks.] Onboard ship we could work up to nine gangs of longshoreman, each gang consisting of the ten men in the hold of the ship plus the two winchmen and hatch tender, four men on the dock and a foreman, eighteen in total.

Gang at the Docks
Submitted by K.Candice Talleur on Sat, 04/19/2014 - 12:14
When you hear that someone is in gang, you might automatically think of some sort of criminal activity. However, in the ocean freight shipping industry, being in a gang is a good thing. A gang is a term used to describe a group of stevedores, or dock workers, who work directly under a manager or supervisor. The main task of a gang is to help on the part of the vessel at the dock during the loading and unloading of the cargo from the ship.
Usually, there are about four or five stevedores in a gang. However, that number could vary based on certain procedures at a specific port or the type of commodity that is being loaded or unloaded. The members of the gang must work together to complete their jobs at the docks. In order for a stevedore to be in a gang, there is a certain physical skill set, and working knowledge of international shipping procedures required. These members should be trained in the proper rules and must certified to be in a gang. The gang members are listed in an official roster.
The supervisor is accountable for overseeing the gang. If a dockworker in the gang fails to show up to work, then the supervisor must locate a suitable replacement. All shippers involved in international container transportation must be aware and appreciate the work that the members of the gang do at the port. Without their help, the shipping process would be more complicated
