Crew retention

CREWING CAPABILITIES

Crew retention

Our efforts to acquire, develop and maintain the right talent on board do not end there. Crew retention is also vital to upholding standards and is indicative of how well we are doing in terms of providing a safe, happy, and rewarding work environment.

At the heart of this is crew welfare, which we make a priority at Anglo-Eastern, with a range of programmes, activities, and support services organised for our seafarers. The result is a high crew retention rate of around 95% across all ranks, including our senior officers.
