This study attempts firstly to analyze the terms of shipping and maritime profession. Shipping encompasses a variety of methods, techniques, and procedures utilized to transport goods from one geographical location to another. The maritime profession is vital to global trade because maritime professionals are responsible for navigating and maintaining ships, ensuring that cargo and passengers are transported safely and efficiently, and complying with international laws and regulations that govern maritime activities. We will also explore the career paths in the shipping industry, detailing the educational and training pathway a seaman can follow and the hierarchy of crew positions on board. Furthermore, we will delve into key entities that shape the working conditions and pay scales for seafarers, including the International Maritime Labour Convention, the International Labour Organization, and the Panhellenic Seamen's Federation. Moreover, we will delve into the variety of nationalities represented onboard, the crew department's operation, the selection criteria and the recruitment processes. In the second part of this research, we will go through the compensation of seafarers. We will examine this issue through the lens of the vessel's registration, particularly with an emphasis on flags of convenience. We will also investigate how the type of vessel—whether tanker, cargo, or LNG—affects salary structures. To conclude, we will delve into the common nationalities represented among seafarers and consider how this impacts their salaries.
