Crew Management, from Planning to Payroll
Human resources modules follow the seafarer through every contract. Crew Manager holds each seafarer's profile, certificates, contracts and sea service and runs sign-on and sign-off, while Crew Planning plans every vessel's tours and takes candidates from proposal to engagement.
Work & Rest Hours records each day in half-hour cells and checks it against the chosen regime as it is entered. Payroll pays crew and shore staff from wage scales to payslips, allotments and bank files.
Track and report work and rest hours with MLC and STCW compliance.
