Kruvaziyer gemi sektörü, artan gemi ve yolcu sayılarından da görülebileceği üzere özellikle son yirmi yılda dikkate değer bir büyüme göstermiştir. Sektördeki yatırımlar da gelecekte büyümenin devam edeceğinin beklendiğini gösterebilir. Gelişen sektörün zabitler için daha fazla istihdam fırsatı yaratacağı düşünülmektedir. Öte yandan, son yıllarda Türk zabitlerin sayısının armakta olduğu görülse de zabitlerin kruvaziyer gemilerde neredeyse hiç çalışmadığı görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türk zabitlerin kruvaziyer gemilerinde çalışmasını engelleyen zorlukları araştırmak ve bu zorlukların üstesinden gelmek için çözümler önermektir. Çalışmada öncelikle ilgili literatür ve konu ile ilgili mevzuat incelenmiş ve şirketlerin istihdam prosedürlerine ilişkin verilerin elde edilmesi için bir anket uygulanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda hem ulusal hem uluslararası seviyede olmak üzere eğitim, dil ve gemilerin personel ile donatılması gibi alanlarda Türk zabitlerin kruvaziyer gemilerde çalışmasını zorlaştıran çeşitli faktörler tespit edilmiştir. Bu zorlukların aşılması için bireyler, eğitim kurumları ve devler kurumları düzeyinde önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Difficulties Preventing Turkish Officers from Working on Cruise Ships and Suggestions for Solution

Öz

The cruise industry has experienced remarkable growth over the past two decades as can be seen from increasing numbers of passengers and cruise ships. Investments in the industry can show that continuous growth is expected for the future. It can be considered that the growing industry would create more employment opportunities for officers. On the other hand, although the number of Turkish officers has been increasing in recent years, it can be observed that Turkish officers almost never work on cruise ships. Aim of this study is to investigate the difficulties that prevent Turkish officers from working on cruise ships and to propose solutions to overcome these difficulties. In the study, literature and legal regulations were examined and a survey was conducted to obtain data on the employment procedures of companies. As a result of the study, various factors were identified in the fields of education, language and manning, which made it difficult for Turkish officers to work on cruise ships at national and international levels. Suggestions were made at the level of individuals, educational institutions, and governments to overcome these difficulties.
