Understanding the Awareness of Mental Health Care among the Marine Engineers in Mumbai

Abstract The current research paper focused on understanding the awareness of mental health care among the marine engineers in Mumbai. The study examined male marine engineers (N=6) in the age group of 29 to 31 years old, through a Qualitative study using focused group case study method and discussed about the mental health awareness and need for being mentally healthy among the marine engineers. The analysis found that the motivating factor for the marine engineers is the pay they receive at the end of the month. It was also seen that the shipping companies do not pay a lot of attention to Employees’ Mental Health. However, out of the 6 individuals interviewed, one individual belonged to a shipping company that would provide psychometric assessments to its employees before they would go on ship. Here, if they did not meet the criteria of the psychometric assessments, they weren’t allowed on the ship, instead they would be provided with counseling. While on board if the employee would feel emotionally disturbed and if that’s affecting their work, they would be asked to sign off. On their arrival the company would provide them with some counseling session by a trained counselor. Further analysis also pointed out that providing mental health training to the seniors on the ship would really help maintain a good healthy working environment on board. As a further research, industrial organizational intervention study is needed in the field to understand the impact of mental health intervention on marine engineers.
