ITF Agreements are collective bargaining agreements approved by the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) that set employment terms for seafarers. ITF Agreements only apply to ships flying flags of convenience and are signed by maritime unions and shipping companies.
A seafarer employment agreement (SEA) is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of employment for a seafarer, including the duties and responsibilities of the seafarer and the employer, the duration of the employment, and the compensation and benefits that will be provided.
All contracts are enforceable, but written agreements are more reliable. The written document provides a paper trail that clearly explains what both parties agreed to. It also acts as evidence if an employer attempts to require an employee to agree to or perform illegal actions.
Standard Length of a Seaman Contract This duration should be at most 12 months unless otherwise specified in national legislation or collective bargaining agreements between employers and seafarers organizations or representatives within the country in which work is conducted aboard vessels registered therein.
