Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) Seafarer Rights, Compliance
Year: 2026 Author: Gökdeniz TURAN Language: English Genre: Udemy eLearning Video course Playtime: 7 sections • 50 lectures • 2 practice tests • 6h 4m total length Quality: HDRip Format: MP4 Video codec: AVC/H.264 Audio codec: AAC Video: 1920x1080 H.264 30 fps Audio: 44.1 KHz x 128 Kbps Description: The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) shapes many of the working and living protections that matter during a seagoing career. This practical course helps seafarers understand how MLC standards connect to employment agreements, wages, hours of work and rest, accommodation, food, medical care, welfare, repatriation, and onboard concerns. It is designed to make the Convention relevant to daily shipboard decisions without replacing company procedures, emergency instructions, or professional legal advice. You will begin with the MLC’s purpose, scope, five-title structure, and the responsibilities of flag States, port States, shipowners, masters, and crew. The course then examines joining a ship fairly, reviewing a seafarer employment agreement, recognizing recruitment protections, and understanding records that support compliance. You will also explore health protection, occupational safety, social security principles, maritime labour certificates, and declarations of maritime labour compliance. As the course progresses, you will work through realistic situations involving rest-hour pressure, delayed wages, unsuitable living conditions, medical access, recruitment charges, repatriation concerns, and unresolved complaints. Learn a professional method for identifying an MLC issue, recording objective facts, using the onboard complaint procedure, and escalating concerns through appropriate channels while respecting confidentiality. What you'll learn • Explain the purpose, scope, five titles, and key duty holders within the Maritime Labour Convention 2006. • Interpret seafarer employment agreements and identify core MLC protections for wages, recruitment, leave, and repatriation. • Evaluate onboard conditions and records against MLC expectations for rest hours, accommodation, food, medical care, and safety. • Apply an evidence-based process to report MLC concerns, use complaint procedures, and prepare for inspections. Who this course is for: • Seafarers who want a practical understanding of their MLC rights and responsibilities. • Cadets and junior crew preparing to join or recently joining commercial vessels. • Deck, engine, catering, and hotel crew who need to recognize onboard labour-standard concerns. • Shipboard supervisors and maritime personnel seeking a clear introduction to MLC compliance and complaint pathways.
