  • OneCare Group (OCG) is proud to be among these partners, striving to improve seafarer wellbeing and set new standards for safety and operational excellence.

OneCare Group (OCG) has joined RightShip’s Zero Harm Innovation Partner Programme, an initiative aiming to encourage the development of new solutions towards a zero-harm maritime industry, reads a RightShip release.

OCG aims to ensure that seafarers have access to the mental health support, medical services and professional development they need to thrive. More than just a service provider, OCG is dedicated to empowering seafarers with the resources to handle the unique pressures of maritime life — keeping them safe, healthy, and mentally resilient.

In an industry where isolation, stress, and long working hours are common, this collaboration aims to connect product creators with shipowners and managers to focus on ensuring seafarers are supported not just physically, but also mentally and professionally. OCG’s approach looks at improving their wellbeing in a meaningful way.

Our partnership with RightShip’s Zero Harm Partners Programme is about putting their wellbeing first. We’re committed to providing the support they need, from mental health services to training that helps them feel prepared and confident in their roles,” said Marinos Kokkinis, Managing Director of OneCare Group.

Furthermore, through the OCG Mobile App, launched in 2023, seafarers can access mental, physical, and nutritional health resources around the clock. Mental Health Support Solutions (MHSS) offers 24/7 counseling and psychological assistance to help seafarers cope with the stresses of maritime life.

Collaboration across the maritime industry is key to improve crew welfare and wellbeing outcomes,” commented Ajinkya Kadam, Head of Partnerships at RightShip.
