ABSTRACT

The maritime business is high-risk because seafarers encounter a variety of dangers while working on ships. To guarantee their safety and well-being, the International Labour Organization (ILO) created the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), 2006, which establishes minimal working and housing standards for sailors. Both flag states and port states have particular duties and obligations to guarantee the successful execution of the MLC, 2006. The flag state is the nation in which the ship is listed, whereas the port state is the country in which the ship calls or operates. [1]Both flag states and port states have particular duties and obligations to guarantee the successful execution of the MLC, 2006.
