Description: Over the last couple of years, the
club has been working on a variety of
projects related to seafarer wellbeing,
culminating in this special edition.
Seafarer wellbeing is a holistic concept
combining physical, mental and social
wellbeing, and our mix of articles reflects
this. People regularly forget how mental
and physical wellbeing are linked. If
you don’t feel good in your body, you
are likely not going to be happy either
and any small additional stress may
quickly result in a depressed feeling.
The Standard Club’s ‘people claims’
statistics indicate a clear upward trend
of mental health related illnesses.
We start off this special edition with an
analysis of The Standard Club’s enhanced
PEME scheme over its first three years
of operation. This flows directly into
an article on the effects of untreated
diabetes, hypertension or obesity on
a seafarer’s performance and how this
may impact the safe operation of a ship.
