Social Security for Seafarers

Social Security for seafarers refers to a system that provides financial support and benefits to maritime workers, ensuring their welfare during times of need, such as illness, injury, or retirement. Under maritime labor laws, seafarers are entitled to various protections, including access to medical care and pensions. These laws ensure that seafarers receive the same rights and benefits as other workers, addressing the unique challenges of working at sea. This collective arrangement helps safeguard their livelihoods and promote fair treatment within the maritime industry.
