Occupational Stressors and Workplace Challenges Faced by Seafarers in Lithuania: A Cross-Sectional Study
Overall, <i>changes at work</i>, <i>relationships</i>, <i>peer support</i>, and <i>management support</i> in the working environment emerged as key factors of perceived stress among seafarers. Junior seafarers and seafarers with shorter years of service experienced higher stress at work. These findings may help in the development of targeted stress management and training strategies tailored to different profiles of seafarers.
