The Japan P&I Club will launch a practical training program, "Training on Onboard Meals and Health Improvement," designed to help maintain seafarers' health, as a new service for our Ｍembers.

Daily meals are a crucial factor in reducing the risk of lifestyle-related diseases and maintaining the overall health of seafarers during long voyages. To provide practical support to our Members, we have partnered with FUJI TRADING CO., LTD., which has a proven track record and specialised expertise in maritime catering services.

This training will be held at a cooking studio owned by the company in the Philippines, where expert staff well-versed in onboard health management will serve as instructors. We will provide a practical and effective training program for catering crew members, combining classroom lectures and practical cooking sessions.

Accordingly, the first session will be held in Cavite, Philippines, as outlined below.

We strongly encourage you to take advantage of this excellent opportunity, which will contribute to improving the well-being of all seafarers and preventing the risk of unexpected disembarkation due to illness or injury.
