Supporting the Industry’s Commitment to Seafarers’ Rights!

Recently, Oil Majors, Charterers, and RightShip have taken a stronger stance on crew welfare compliance. Many vessels, including tankers, have been rejected, downgraded, or had commercial eligibility delayed due to non-submission or incomplete submission of the Crew Welfare Self-Assessment (CWSA) on the RightShip platform.
This underscores three realities:

• CWSA submission is no longer optional.
• Failure to submit carries direct commercial consequences.
• Crew welfare is now a core element of governance, due diligence, and chartering eligibility.

Alpha Marine Consulting P.C. supports companies in meeting these expectations with confidence. Our CWSA Support Services include:

• Guidance throughout the RightShip submission process
• Gap analysis and benchmarking
• Development of structured improvement plans
• Training for shore and sea personnel
• Preparation of documentation and compliance tools
• SMS updates aligned with the Questionnaire requirements

We remain committed to assisting shipping companies in achieving full compliance with this requirement.
