To assist seafarers and their mental wellbeing in coping with the challenges imposed by COVID-19 pandemic, BIMCO compiled a list of useful resources to enable seafarers to seek free, immediate and direct help.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented challenges for seafarers, whom in many cases, remain stuck at sea or stuck at home unable to travel and start their next job. This is a result of  crew change restrictions imposed by governments in an attempt to prevent further spreading of the virus.

These challenges are affecting seafarers and their work process and routines, a situation which is beyond their control. These challenges are also placing tremendous strain on their mental wellbeing and in some cases, have impacted the mental and physical well-being of some seafarers trying to cope with an extraordinary situation.

To assist seafarers and companies, BIMCO has compiled a list of resources for seafarers to reach out for mental health assistance.
