30 Shore leave
Subject to the operational requirements of a seafarer’s work on board a vessel, the master of a vessel must ensure that when the vessel is in port each seafarer on board the vessel is, if requested by the seafarer, granted leave to go to shore.
Note Paragraph 2 of MLC regulation 2.4 provides that a country in which the Maritime Labour Convention is in force must grant shore leave in accordance with that paragraph to seafarers employed on vessels registered in the country. For requirements for foreign vessels — see Division 2.
