INDUSTRY DATA COLLECTION EXERCISE ON THE VACCINATION OF SEAFARERS
Circular Ref: O(21)34
Issue Date: 16 Jun 2021
Members are invited to note that the industry bodies (ICS, BIMCO, CLIA, ECSA, ICMA, IMCA, IMEC, IMHA, INTERCARGO, InterManager, INTERTANKO, ISOA, ITF and WSC) are seeking input into the vaccination of seafarers.
At present, information available is limited which hinders lobbying efforts as the industry is currently unaware of where significant gaps exist. To aid this process, they are undertaking a concerted and joint effort to gather as much information as possible through the questionnaire in the subject survey.
Each member company is requested to complete this exercise once. Once the information has been collated, gaps and issues highlighted will be targeted.
A further exercise will be conducted later in the year to see how much progress has been made.
