3. Candidate’s Rights and Obligations as per the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), 2006
To work as a seafarer you need to be over the age of 16. There are limitations involved with working onboard
between the ages of 16-18. Candidates aged 16-18 are unable to undertake any position in the Galley and other
restrictions may apply to conditions of employment. Proof of age will need to be presented to Crewashore LLC.
Crewashore LLC does not charge seafarers, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any fees for the registration of their
details upon gaining employment. The only fees that you will incur will be those needed to obtain a national statutory
medical (ENG1) certificate, and national travel documents such as a passport, seaman’s book and visas, or when
applying for CV assistance, visa assistance, and/or school assistance through Crewashore LLC.
To work as a seafarer you need to be medically fit. Crewashore LLC will request to view an original copy of a national
statutory medical certificate (ENG1).
You are responsible for ensuring that your personal information, as published on the System, is accurate and up to
date. You warrant that your Candidate Profile, including your CV and certification is true and correct and is an
accurate summary of your education, employment and qualifications. You will need to provide copies of all your
certificates and documents to Crewashore LLC and all the necessary checks will be made to verify their authenticity
and validity with the issuing training provider or national agency. We reserve the right to suspend, withdraw or
otherwise make unavailable your Candidate Profile if any information contained therein is false or inaccurate.
You will need to provide Crewashore LLC with copies of written employment references, with up-to-date contact
information for those employment references, and accept that those referees may be contacted by Crewashore LLC.
You understand and agree that should a security or criminal record check be required by an employer, you would
see no impediment to that taking place.
You understand and agree that should a drug or alcohol test be required by the employer, you would see no
impediment to that taking place.
Crewashore LLC will inform you of your salary, leave allowance and benefits onboard to the best of their knowledge and
will fully explain your rights and duties with regards to the vessel. As a seafarer you need to be aware that you are
entitled to an employment contract. Crewashore LLC advises you that your final contract should contain a clause
regarding repatriation to your point of embarkation, or a final destination mutually agreed by yourself and your
potential employer. You should have the opportunity to examine and seek advice on your employment agreement
and freely enter into the agreement.
4. Candidate Profile
You agree to, and unconditionally and unequivocally consent to:
– us providing your Candidate Profile, including without limitation, your CV, to any and all Subscribers, and our 3rd
party security company; and,
– the use of any such information by any Subscriber and/or 3rd party security company. You hereby grant us an
irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, worldwide license (with the right to sub-license) to use,
copy, publish, disclose, process, stream, store, retain, publicly perform or display, transmit, scan, reformat, modify,
edit, frame, translate, excerpt, adapt, create derivative works and distribute, any content you have provided
(including, without limitation, your Candidate Profile), in connection with the service or the use or promotion thereof.
We agree to allow you full access to your Candidate Profile, as maintained on the System, in order to enable you to
view and edit your personal information. You expressly warrant that you will only upload information and data in

consider inappropriate, inaccurate, illegal, immoral, offensive, obscene or in respect of which we receive any
complaint or objection. We further reserve the right at our sole discretion to decline to distribute or forward or to
suspend or remove your Candidate Profile, CV or any part thereof.
It is the responsibility of the candidates to indicate on their profile whether they are actively looking for a job or no
longer looking for a job. If the candidate indicates that they are no longer looking for a job, your profile will be
considered dormant and, although your information will still be stored in the System, it will not appear in any
Subscriber’s search results. When you obtain employment, you should access your profile and click on ‘no longer
looking’ under ‘Current Status’, which will make your profile dormant. You may re-activate your profile at any time by
clicking ‘currently looking’ under ‘Current Situation’ on your profile page.
If you wish to have your Candidate Profile temporarily unavailable to Subscribers, you may do so at any time by
indicating that you are no longer looking for work in your Candidate Profile. If you wish to have your Candidate Profile
permanently removed from the database, you may do so at any time by contacting us in writing, by email, in each
case at the address provided on our website (www.crewsashorejobs.com). You acknowledge that we may retain
archived copies of any information you have previously provided notwithstanding the temporary or permanent
removal of your Candidate Profile.
We agree to use reasonable endeavors to prevent your personal information from being accessed by parties other
than us, Subscribers and our third party security company. If, despite such efforts, any information is nevertheless
accessed by a third party other than us or any Subscriber, you hereby release us from any liability for any loss or
inconvenience you may suffer as a consequence of such unauthorized access and from any other consequences
thereof howsoever caused.
We give no warranty or representation as to the suitability, performance or character of any Subscribers who may
use the System. Before accepting a position, you must undertake your own due diligence and exercise your own
judgment as to the Subscriber’s character and/or suitability.
In no circumstances shall we be liable (whether in contract or tort) for any loss of profits, your failure to secure
employment, loss of business, depletion of goodwill and/or similar losses, loss of contract, loss of or corruption of
data or information, or any special, indirect, consequential or pure economic loss, costs, damages, charges or
expenses suffered by you.
You agree to indemnify us in relation to any loss and/or damage suffered, including any direct, indirect, incidental,
special, consequential and/or punitive damages, arising in consequence of your Candidate Profile or otherwise in
consequence of your breach of any of your obligations under these Terms.
