National Union of Seafarers of India

National Union of Seafarers of India (NUSI) proudly represents thousands of Indian seafarers working in both Indian, foreign flagships and cruise ships. NUSI traces its origin since 1896, NUSI advocates for the rights, welfare, and working conditions of seafarers, ensuring their interests are protected through collective bargaining with employers and relevant authorities. The union plays a key role in negotiating better wages, working conditions, and ensuring compliance with maritime labor laws. It also focuses on the training and development of seafarers and addresses issues such as safety, healthcare, and social security. NUSI is affiliated with the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) and proudly represents Indian seafarers in international bodies like International Labour Organization (ILO) and International Maritime Organization (IMO). Thousands of our seafarers and families have benefitted over the years.
