THE SILENT CRISIS: SEAFARERS AND THE “SEA OF PAPERWORK”
Every day, thousands of seafarers globally face an invisible “black hole.” It’s not storms or piracy, but a relentless battle with paperwork—a tool that was supposedly created to make their jobs easier.
According to an IMO study, up to 71% of seafarers believe that current procedures are excessive and unnecessary, leading to significant wasted time and mental stress.
Despite the launch of the Maritime Single Window (MSW) in 2024, only 36% of ports have adopted fully digital systems, and a staggering 87% of seafarers still don’t use it. Similarly, while SIRE 2.0 was expected to be a saving grace, it has become a burden due to the lack of automation tools, forcing seafarers to spend hundreds of minutes on documentation.
This is merely the tip of the iceberg.
The Seafarer Club presents a dedicated workshop: OPTIMIZING MARITIME MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE, where you will:
- Discover a comprehensive roadmap for digital transformation in the maritime industry.
- Implement automated systems to alleviate the burden of paperwork for seafarers.
- Enhance operational efficiency and ensure the safety of your fleet.
Don’t let your fleet fall behind. The time for change is now!
