Welfare Account
A Crew 2 Crew Welfare Account helps organizations reach crew members and communicate more effectively
The Problem
For decades the pressure has been increasing in crew-related industries. This in turn has lead to thousands leaving the industries for shore-based work, but what of those who stayed or came in to fill the shortfalls?
Everyday socializing we take for granted on shore is broken by a crew environment that is constantly changing. International crews also bring language difficulties, adding to the sense of isolation. Combine this with an environment where internet access has been at best difficult, at worst non-existent, then the essential exchange of news and information, and the ability to keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues is lost.
The Solution
Crew 2 Crew is dedicated to helping crew members find, connect & inform. It helps maintain relationships with colleagues, friends and family, enhancing their professional and personal life and helping them feel more in touch. Our communications services have been made accessible to all, from captain to cabin boy, both away and at home.
This unique system supports 38 languages, contains industry databases, caters for online, satellite and mobile technologies and provides undreamt of accessibility to everyone in a new global crew community. Having spent many years working as crew members, with first hand experience of the help and support that welfare organizations give, the team behind Crew 2 Crew understand the need for easier and greater access to all types of welfare and that the best people to provide welfare are the specialist organizations themselves.
This is why Crew 2 Crew are opening up the communications portals to welfare organizations, free of charge, allowing them direct access to the online crew communities, and helping crew members to find the organizations that can best help and support them when they need it.
