maritime welfare

Maritime welfare refers to the support and services provided to ensure the well-being of seafarers—those who work on ships. It encompasses health care, safe living conditions, mental health support, and social connection, both while at sea and during their time ashore. The goal is to improve their quality of life, address their needs, and promote their safety and security. Effective maritime welfare initiatives help reduce fatigue, stress, and isolation, ultimately supporting the overall productivity and morale of maritime workers.
