This Guidance addresses legal, liability and insurance issues that could potentially arise for shipowners from or in connection with vaccinations of crew for coronavirus (COVID-19). It considers questions that have been raised by members such as: whether and under what conditions a shipowner can require crew to have vaccination, what vaccines may be safely given and what might be the potential liabilities for shipowners in requiring crew to be vaccinated. It provides guidance on best employment practice to protect against such liabilities and information on insurance cover under the shipowner’s standard Protection and Indemnity (P&I) insurance.
This Guidance will form part of the Industry Guidance: Coronavirus (COVID-19): Guidance for Ship Operators for the Protection of the Health of Seafarers.
