Key information you need to know
The ITF has created several directories packed with up-to-date information to help you find out what you need to know across a number of issues. This ranges from the abuses seafarers face, including abandonment and criminalisation, to those responsible for them – whether flag states, ship owners, managers or manning agents. It also includes our index of seafarers’ centres, so you can enjoy your shore leave, wherever it may be.

LISTE DES ABANDONS
Chaque année, l’ITF et ses affiliés traitent un certain nombre de cas d’« abandon », lorsqu’un armateur « abandonne » ses responsabilités à l’égard du navire et de son équipage. Consulter les derniers cas signalés.
LISTE DES CAS D’INCRIMINATION
Criminalisation is one of the most serious problems facing seafarers today. When there has been a maritime accident, or a pollution infringement, seafarers have often been detained and denied access to normal rules of fair play and justice.
INDICE DES VIOLATIONS DES DROITS DES GENS DE MER
Armateurs, gestionnaires de navires, États du pavillon ou autres parties dont les activités justifient l’inclusion dans l’Indice des violations des droits des gens de mer de l’ITF.

Le site web ITFShipBeSure fournit des conseils pour trouver un agent de placement, éviter les arnaques au recrutement et s’assurer de signer un contrat adéquat.
