The challenge
The UK's Maritime and Coastguard Agency sought to create an app for assessing the mental health and wellbeing of seafarers. The app's objective was to evaluate various facets of life at sea, encompassing:
- Workload.
- Relationships.
- Social connections.
- Access to support services.
The solution
Snap TechLabs was engaged to develop this app, resulting in the creation of the Wellbeing at Sea Tool, now widely endorsed within the seafaring industry.
This tool is designed to pinpoint the stressors and difficulties encountered by seafarers, aiming to enhance mental health support and elevate overall wellbeing within the maritime sector.
It incorporates sophisticated reporting, presenting a visual summary along with an actionable plan for improvement.
Furthermore, personalized advice is offered to individuals to address any concerns raised during the evaluation process.
