Statute overview

About this statute

Bekendtgørelsen kræver bl.a., at ansatte på skibe har et gyldigt sundhedsbevis, og at tvivl om omfattethed afgøres af Søfartsstyrelsen. Søfartslæger must use the designated medical certificate, assess specified health and safety risks, document their examination, and report the result to Søfartsstyrelsen without sharing health data. Certain ship medical examiners must act independently, crew members need medical fitness checks at set intervals, and the Danish Maritime Authority may require re-examination, revoke certificates, or stop someone serving on board. Section 9 gives rules on medical-certificate appeals, who pays for examinations, and a few safety duties for seafarers and shipmasters.
