This article continues the research cycle devoted to the transformation of human resource management mechanisms in shipping companies under the influence of environmental regulations. While the previous study provided a general conceptual framework for HR adaptation to decarbonization policies, the present paper focuses specifically on liner shipping as a network-centered business model and examines its segment-specific implications for shore-based competencies. Liner shipping is characterized by fixed service schedules, hub-and-spoke logistics architecture, long-term contractual relationships with global cargo owners, and participation in strategic alliances and slot-sharing arrangements. These structural features create a unique regulatory exposure under the EU Emissions Trading System, FuelEU Maritime Regulation, the forthcoming UK ETS expansion, and the IMO Net Zero Framework. Unlike tramp shipping, liner operators face systemic and continuous decarbonization pressure embedded in their network operations and customer value propositions. The study analyzes how regulatory instruments based on both cap-and-trade mechanisms and well-to-wake greenhouse gas intensity standards reshape internal organizational processes and competency requirements. Particular attention is paid to the growing importance of Scope 3 transparency, fuel pathway selection, emissions monitoring and verification (MRV), carbon allowance management, and contractual allocation of compliance costs. The findings demonstrate that shore-based personnel in liner companies increasingly perform strategic coordination functions that integrate regulatory interpretation, emissions accounting, fuel economics, and commercial decision-making. This transformation requires the development of interdisciplinary competencies combining maritime operational knowledge, regulatory literacy, economic modeling skills, and cross-functional communication abilities. The article proposes a structured competency profile for shore-based teams operating within network-driven shipping environments and outlines priority directions for adapting HR policies in liner companies. The results contribute to a more differentiated understanding of HR transformation across maritime business models and provide a foundation for subsequent comparative analysis with tramp shipping.
