Concentrated Inspection Campaign (CIC) 2024 on Crew Wages and SEA 15.07.2024 22:02This year’s Concentrated Inspection Campaign (CIC), running from 1 September until 30 November 2024, prioritizes seafarers’ basic rights on board ships, and will be carried out on the topic of crew wages and Seafarer Employment Agreements (SEAs) under MLC.
Each year, PSC regimes identify a specific focus area to be checked during regular inspections. For the current year, the Paris and Tokyo MoUs agreed to run a CIC on the topic of crew wages and Seafarer Employment Agreements under MLC. It is expected that the financial security requirements under the 2014 amendments to the MLC are also covered by this CIC.
The majority of PSC MoUs have confirmed their participation in this year’s CIC. It will be carried out between 1 September and 30 November and will be covered by an additional questionnaire during routine PSC inspections.
This additional Questionnaire is usually published in early August 2024.
