Seafarers' Employment and Welfare Committee (SEWC)

The Seafarers' Employment and Welfare Committee (SEWC) is a group that focuses on ensuring the fair treatment, proper employment conditions, and well-being of seafarers—maritime workers who operate ships. It works to develop policies, promote best practices, and address issues like employment rights, health, safety, and welfare onboard ships. The committee often collaborates with shipping companies, governments, and industry organizations to support seafarers' rights and improve their working environment, contributing to the overall safety and sustainability of maritime operations.
