Merchant Navy Decoded Jobs is an independent platform dedicated to sharing job-related updates for
seafarers. We collaborate with a network of trusted HR professionals who have been granted access to post the latest job opportunities.
However, it is crucial to understand that Merchant Navy Decoded Jobs has no direct affiliation, partnership, or endorsement with any shipping company, employer, or recruitment agency.
While we take proactive measures to ensure that only verified HR professionals post job listings on our
platform, we do not assume responsibility for the authenticity, legitimacy, or outcome of any job application,
recruitment process, or employment offer. Users are strongly encouraged to independently verify job opportunities before proceeding with any application.
Fraud Prevention & Safety Advisory:
We strongly advise all job seekers to exercise caution and due diligence before proceeding with any
job opportunity. To assist in verification, we have included both the RPSL
Checklist and the ITF Checklist in the website header, which should be used to confirm the
legitimacy of any shipping company or recruitment agency.
β Definition of Fraud in Maritime Recruitment:
Fraudulent activities in the maritime job sector typically include, but are not limited to:
Demanding money in exchange for a job offer. Merchant Navy Decoded Jobs does not charge any fees for job placements and does not authorize any individual or agency to collect money on our behalf.
Asking for medical fees or other charges before selection. Authentic companies arrange their own medical procedures after a formal job offer. If someone asks you to pay for medicals in advance, it is likely a scam.
Failing to provide proper documentation before joining. Before signing any contract or boarding a ship, seafarers must ensure they receive Form I from the company, which is an essential document for all maritime employees.
Important Safety Measures for Job Seekers
- Always verify the RPSL number of a recruitment agency before proceeding with any job offer.
- Do not make any payment to secure a job. Legitimate shipping companies never ask for money from candidates.
- Ensure all necessary employment documents, including Form I, are provided before joining a vessel.
- If you encounter any suspicious activity, report it to the appropriate authorities immediately.
