Fidelity International, an Investment group, is urging for the crewing crisis to be addressed. The company believes that prohibiting seafarers from disembarking during the pandemic puts the health and safety of workers at risk, which in turn, add to the pressure on global supply chains. They argue that while regulations are in place which indicate acceptable contract lengths, many seafarers are not in an economic situation to feel comfortable or have the leverage to push back when those regulations are not met.
