Help & support

Even though some of the issues reported to us at SeafarerHelp are quite common, finding the best help and support can depend on a number of factors. For example, the terms of a written employment contract will differ for each seafarer, and the laws protecting you will vary according to your ship’s flag state. Here you will find some general information about the most common issues seafarers contact us about which may be useful now or for future reference.

If you are worried about any of the issues listed here, or anything else, you should contact the SeafarerHelp team. Everything you tell us will be kept confidential, and we will not pass your details on to anyone else if you don’t want us to.
