Welfare at Sea

Welfare at Sea refers to the policies and practices that support the well-being of seafarers working aboard ships. It encompasses various aspects, including fair treatment, mental and physical health support, safety regulations, and access to resources like communication, food, and rest. The goal is to ensure that seafarers are treated with dignity and respect while facing the unique challenges of life at sea. This concept is critical given that seafarers often work in demanding conditions far from home, and their welfare directly impacts their performance and safety, as well as the broader maritime industry.
