At MYS Superyacht Crew, we are committed to supporting both vessel operators and crew with placements that meet the latest Marine Order11 (2024) standards. We work with owners and captains to ensure vessels meet international crew welfare standards, and that crew have contracts, health cover, and access to onboard support.

-
- Accommodation, meals, water, and medical access meet the minimum standards required

At MYS Superyacht Crew, all placements are made in alignment with Marine Order 11 (Living and working conditions on vessels) 2024. This helps ensure a safe, fair, and legally compliant environment for crew onboard.
We work closely with vessel owners, captains, and crew to help confirm the following:
- Employers are aware of their responsibilities under the MLC
- Crew welfare, medical, and living conditions meet minimum regulatory standards
- Complaint procedures are in place and accessible
- Crew rights under the MLC and MO11 are upheld throughout their contract
- Employers must acknowledge compliance of MO11 before recruitment services commence
