Work and Rest hours at sea

Statements on Seatrans focus: - As a person’s level of fatigue increases, his decision taking

capacity and response time is seriously hampered. Such person is not only at risk to himself but also to others and the vessel.

- And this makes Rest Hours a high priority Safety issue at sea. Non-compliance of Work and Rest hours is a major challenge in general in the shipping industry.

MLC 2006 - Section 2.3 Hours of work and hours of rest 1. For the purpose of these provisions, the term:

a) “hours of work” means time during which seafarers are required to do work on account of the ship; b) “hours of rest” means time outside hours of work; this term does not include short breaks [of one hour or less or a

break for a meal].

2. In accordance with these provisions, a [maximum number of hours of work] [minimum number of hours of rest] shall be observed for seafarers.

3. The normal working hours’ standard for seafarers, like that for other workers, is based on an eight-hour day with one day of rest per week and rest on public holidays. The competent authority may authorize a collective agreement which determines seafarers’ normal working hours on a basis no less favorable than the paragraphs below.

4. The [maximum hours of work shall be 14 hours in any 24-hour period and 72 hours in any seven-day period] [minimum hours of rest shall be ten hours in any 24-hour period and 77 hours in any seven-day period]. Taking into account the dangers posed by the fatigue of seafarers, especially those whose duties involve navigational safety and the safe and secure operation of the ship, the competent authority may, after consulting the ship owners' and seafarers’ organizations, make appropriate [reductions in the maximum hours of work] [increases to the minimum hours of rest].

5. Hours of rest may be divided into no more than two periods, one of which must be at least six hours in length, and the interval between consecutive periods of rest must not exceed 14 hours.

6. Musters, fire-fighting and lifeboat drills, and mandatory drills, must be conducted in a manner that minimizes the disturbance of rest periods and does not induce fatigue.

7. When a seafarer is on call , such as when a machinery space is unattended, the seafarer must have an adequate compensatory rest period if the normal period of rest is disturbed by call-outs to work.
