Check with the flag state of the vessel if they require MLC or STCW compliance. If they specify MLC then verify if they require the rest based rules or the work based rules. For the rest based rules choose regime “ILO REST”, for the work based rules choose “ILO WORK”, Please note very few flag states follow the work based rules. For flag states that specify STCW compliance, choose the regime “STCW 2010”. if the flag state further allows the use of the Manila Exceptions and you have collective bargaining agreements that also support this then also tick the “Manila Exceptions” box. if all else fails / when in doubt, use STCW 2010 without the Manila Exceptions!
