The SRI Legal Database is an innovative resource for those wishing to develop their knowledge in the field of seafarers and the law.
It is a comprehensive collection of materials on shipping and seafarers rights, including national and international laws, treaties, case law and other legal materials.
Documents on the Database cover topics ranging from legal aid legislation and lawyers’ codes of conducts to international agreements on maritime labour and migrant worker treaties. Its detailed and user-friendly search facility allows the user to search topic keyword, subject, language, date and country.
Many of the documents on the Database link to other websites and online databases, thus ensuring that users have the most up-to-date versions of documents.
Links include government websites, national databases, databases of international organisations, maritime databases, human rights databases and academic online databases.
