Quality assurance by seaborne cargo inspectors
Responsibility in the port for counting crates and bags used to rest with tallymen. Today, they provide expertise and check cargoes. They check and measure general cargoes of all types, stuff containers and trailers and compile normed stowage plans and other shipping documents. Nowadays tallymen also supervise loading and discharge processes for grain, feedstuffs and other commodities.
