seafarer rights

Seafarer rights are protections that ensure workers aboard ships are treated fairly and safely. They include proper wages, reasonable working hours, safe and healthy conditions, and the right to rest and leave. Additionally, seafarers have the right to fair treatment, access to medical care, and legal protections under international laws like the Maritime Labour Convention. These rights help prevent exploitation and ensure that maritime workers are respected and supported while performing their duties at sea.
