In this episode of Future Thinking, Captain Yves Vandenborn, Head of Loss Prevention – Asia-Pacific at NorthStandard, explores how shipowners and operators are responding to improving the evolving well-being needs of today's seafarers and building safer, more supportive working environments. Yves is joined by Jeremy Sutton, CEO of Swire Shipping, and Nick Potter, President & CEO of AET, both NorthStandard Members, to discuss the relationship between crew wellbeing, vessel safety and operational performance.
Together, they share industry best practices which attract, develop and retain the next generation of seafarers, from clear career pathways and mentoring programmes to onboard support. The conversation also examines changing expectations around connectivity, community and life at sea, while sharing examples of initiatives, including the All Aboard Alliance which features are explained by guest speaker Susanne Justesen, Director of Human Sustainability at Global Maritime Forum.
