Labour clamps downs on poor working conditions at sea, with cruise and cargo ships also in its sights.
Transport secretary Louise Haigh said the new laws would close loopholes exploited by P&O.
Any company would now face unlimited fines for acting in such a way.
Government will also pass regulations making cross-Channel ferry operators pay the national minimum wage.
It said it had revised crew rotations as directed by French legislation which meant it was “no longer practical to employ crew from outside Europe in large numbers, due to travel time and the requirements of the immigration system”. A spokesperson for the separate, Carnival-owned, P&O Cruises said: “Our seafarers are, and always have been, at the heart of our business. We will not be dismissing and re-engaging any of our crew members.”.
