#SeafarersAreKeyWorkers

Today the IMO Celebrates the 10th edition of the World Seafarers Day. Seafarers are on the frontline of the COVID-19 pandemic, playing an essential role in maintaining the flow of vital goods. However, the crisis has led to difficult working conditions for seafarers, including uncertainties and difficulties about port access, re-supply, crew changeovers, and repatriation. KOTUG Seabulk Maritime embraces this year’s campaign of the IMO to pay tribute to seafarers, acknowledging their sacrifice and the issues they face. But also to encourage everyone to treat seafarers with the respect and dignity they deserve so that they can continue to provide their vital services to keep world trade moving. Help to spread the word by using the hashtag #SeafarersAreKeyWorkers. We are proud of all our fantastic colleagues at sea in these difficult times.
