Compliance with maritime laws is no easy feat. Shipping companies must understand and adhere to a labyrinth of international, national, and local regulations.

- STCW: Ensures crew meet minimum safety training.
- MLC: Sets global standards for living conditions, work hours, and employment agreements.

Each regulation adds another layer of complexity in recruiting the right crew member. Non-compliance can lead to hefty fines or ship detention.
