Abstract

Ships represent a unique working environment with numerous challenges and risks. The specific conditions on ships may have a more significant impact on the mental health of seafarers compared to those working on land. A systematic review has been conducted to identify the main factors in the literature and to determine their impact on the mental health of seafarers. This review analyzed the scientific literature published between January 2017 and September 2023, utilizing the PRISMA model and search engines such as PubMed and Web of Science (WoS). Factors associated with the mental health problems of seafarers can be categorized as individual factors and job-related factors. However, it has been observed that these factors are interconnected and cannot be considered separately. Improving the mental health of seafarers in the maritime sector requires both individual and organizational measures to be taken.

Abstract

Gemiler, birçok zorluk ve risk içeren özel bir çalışma ortamını temsil eder. Gemilerdeki özel durum, karada çalışanlara göre gemi adamlarının ruhsal sağlığını daha belirgin bir şekilde etkileyebilir. Literatürdeki ana faktörleri belirlemek ve bu faktörlerin gemi adamlarının ruhsal sağlığı üzerindeki etkilerini tespit etmek amacıyla bu sistematik derleme yapılmıştır. Bu derleme, Ocak 2017 ile Eylül 2023 yılları arasında yayımlanan bilimsel literatürü, PubMed ve Web of Science (WoS) arama motorları kullanılarak PRISMA modeli ile analiz etmiştir. Gemi adamlarının ruhsal sağlık sorunlarıyla ilişkilendirilen faktörler, bireysel faktörler ve işle ilgili faktörler olarak kategorize edilebildiği fakat bu faktörlerin birbiriyle ilişki içinde olduğu ve ayrı olarak düşünülemeyeceği görülmüştür. Denizcilik sektöründe çalışan gemi adamlarının ruhsal sağlıklarının iyileştirilmesi için hem bireysel hem de organizasyonel önlemler alınması gerekmektedir.
