Crew Insurance

Crew Insurance

It is a fact that one of the most critical and sensitive points of a shipping company is the crew that travels with its ships, which is a cornerstone of the labor force of a shipping company. Unlike a group insurance that is offered voluntarily to the employees of a shipping company, in the case of the crew, the ship-owner has liability towards to crew members.

The fact that there is no social security covering seafarers while they are at sea, forces the ship-owner to undertake the costs that may arise from an accident, illness or loss of life to a crew member.

For this reason, insurance cover has been created especially for crew coverage, that complements P&I coverage, that can cover expenses up to the club’s deductible.
