SICPA, a Swiss-based track and trace specialist, in partnership with Hong Kong’s Crew Assist, has developed a tech solution that may help the crew change crisis. A proof-of-concept trial featuring the brand new CERTUSTM myHealth Pass has started. The digital document is designed to alleviate concern from governments over the validity of many crew’s Covid-19 health checks. CERTUSTM myHealth Pass validates digital documents through SICPA’s existing and widely accepted solution, CERTUSTM. SIPCA’s technology authenticates both paper-based and digital critical information. The solution will be used to issue, and secure WHO-approved Covid-19 test results, guaranteeing their authenticity. Seafarers will be able to carry their authenticated digital health pass via their smartphone.
