FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin

Crew welfare is a very important issue nowadays ; the COVID-19 pandemic has actually brought forward such an important issue. In the recent SAFETY4SEA Virtual Forum, Mr. Johan Smith, Wellness at Sea Programme Manager at Sailors’ Society, noted that this situation is presenting us with a very unique opportunity to create a wellbeing and mental health management for our industry.

Overall, a multi-level intervention is needed to build awareness on multiple levels in which management should be involved as well. Also, we need to debunk some myths around seafarers and understand wellbeing and mental health from different cultural perspectives.

7 key issues in building a wellbeing and mental health management system

#1 Consider it as a holistic system
