Seafarer Abandonment: A Human Rights at Sea Perspective

Öz

Improper protection of human rights of seafarers is a problem that has arisen historically with the growth of the shipping industry. Data reveals that human rights violations related to seafarers and the shipping industry are increasing significantly. The global maritime administrations and various legal systems that oversee maritime activities encounter a lack of regulations and proper enforcements of law in issues such as seafarer abandonment, illegal migration, human trafficking, maritime terrorism, floating armoires and illegal weapon transactions on the high seas, these are also current problems where legal interventions have not been adequate. This study examines several case studies to which it was exposed during author’s internships and researches at Human Rights at Sea charity a part of her work Within 2014 to 2019. This paper observes the international legal systems’ capacity to protect human rights at sea, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of enhancing the applicable administrative system to support victims of human rights abuses at seas considering abandonment of seafarers. Abandonment of seafarers is a problem that has historically arisen with the growth of shipping industry . In most cases of abandonment, crews unexpectedly deserted by their marine operations. They find themselves stranded in a country where they do not speak the language, are facing difficulties of financial constraints due to unpaid wages and often lack of proper access to timely legal procedure and expert support. This paper also addresses the need for an effective enforcement system to prevent human rights violations specifically on seafarers in abandonment. The aims of this research paper are therefore: a. To highlight an applicable path for recognition and potential further educational development of seafarers’ rights relation to abandonment through awareness. The study examines past and present cases of seafarer abandonment and international law relating to maritime labour and seafarer abandonment; b. To determine whether current laws and their practice and enforcement are sufficient in protecting the human rights of abandoned seafarers, where laws are found to be insufficient, or ill enforced; c. Provide possible solutions and alternatives that may lead to increased welfare support for the vulnerable population of abandoned seafarers, as well as increased awareness of human rights at sea, in general.
