The Seafarers Happiness Index (SHI) is a quarterly survey by the Mission to Seafarers, in partnership with Idwal and NorthStandard, and supported by Inmarsat, offering vital insights into life at sea, highlighting where action is most urgently needed to support a sustainable maritime workforce.

While the increase this quarter suggests a degree of stabilisation following the sharp downturn in Q3, the findings reveal that seafarers continue to face mounting pressures and fears related to geopolitics, particularly sanctions and evolving legal landscapes. The fear of unwitting complicity in crimes they cannot see, or control, has become a concern and a heavy burden for seafarers.
