GENERAL HAPPINESS
Though there was negativity about loneliness, disconnection and dissatisfaction, the Index responses brought glimpses of the potential
for seafaring to remain an incredible profession. Hopefully these reports can shed more light on what seafaring can be, as we lift it from what it has all too often become.

The general happiness level of seafarers’ rests on a balancing act between the challenges of work and personal issues. Where pressures build and seafarers lack outlets or a means of releasing and relaxing, then that is where problems fester.
