SUMMARY:Bahamas Shipowners Association Industry Forum
DESCRIPTION:Crewing in Crisis… Mk II – we’ve made progress\, but there is still work to be done. \nThe Bahamas Shipowners Association (BSA) aims to take up strategic positions and drive a progressive industry dialogue. \nTwo years ago we held one of the first industry fora focused on the global effects of the coronavirus on our industry and especially on our crews. \nThe Covid pandemic is still affecting shipping operations. \nNow we are facing parallel global crisis with the war in Ukraine\, which is again impacting the shipping industry and our crews – with far reaching global impact on food and fuel prices and financial conditions. \nThese are indeed unprecedented times. Nevertheless\, we need to ask the question: Where are we with seafarer wellbeing initiatives\, employment improvements\, and progressive crewing strategies – and how well prepared can our industry be for the next ’black swan’? \n
