Year: 2022 Language: english Author: Paul Carroll & Adam Behailu Genre: Research papers Publisher: IPSOS Edition: Version 1 / June Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 34 Description: Seafaring is a rewarding and important career. But it has unique challenges that for too long have gone unnoticed. It can be isolating, with months at sea, cut off from family and friends. This was made only worse by the recent pandemic which saw significant delays in ships able to dock. It’s physically demanding work and given crew rotations it can be hard to form essential bonds with others. Finally, add in precarious contracts, poor pay, and inconsistent wellbeing support into the mix and you have all the ingredients for a mental health crisis. This is the context behind the important issue of seafarer suicide at sea, which this report explores. Additional info: Ipsos was commissioned by the Department for Transport (DfT) and the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) to conduct research into the mental health of seafarers and, specifically, suicide among seafarers. The research findings will help fill the gaps in knowledge on this important issue, and feed into the discussions about the mandatory recording of suicide at sea.
