Employment Services ICC Limited (Lesia)

Welcome to Lesia – the crew management and employment payment specialists for yachts and yacht owners.

Employment Services

Employment legislation has become more complex for superyachts and their owners. Lesia can help you untangle the rules and regulations to ensure beneficial owners and charter guests can enjoy the yacht and not be concerned by crew employment matters and payroll.

Whether the concerns are with current Social Security legislation, existing Flag state procedures or the impact of the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC 2006), Lesia is well placed to provide clients with the very best of protection for themselves and the crew.

Lesia is a Crew Management company offering Employment, HR and Payroll services through the Incorporated Cells, (IC) it creates for each yacht. Each IC is an entity in its own right and has all its assets and liabilities protected from the activities of the ICC and any other IC. As a result we are able to provide greater protection to yacht owners and yacht crews.

Lesia offers a full suite of crew management, employment, HR and payroll services to Yacht Owners and Yacht management companies irrespective of where they are based.

Yacht Owners

Owning a yacht, whether for private or commercial use can be one of the most enjoyable experiences there is. 

Lesia works in partnership with Yacht Management companies to enhance and complement the services that they offer.

Crew Services

Lesia provides day to day support for crew not only whilst they are on board the yacht, but when they are at home as well.

Consultancy

We carry out consultancy work for clients and non-clients on a regular basis on anything connected with crew employment, whether that be reviewing SEA, HR issues, jurisdiction of SEA, MLC, 2006 or day to day crew management. Further information is available on request.

Lesia provides day to day support for crew not only whilst they are on board the yacht, but when they are at home as well. Whether that be confirming earnings for mortgages, VISA applications, travel documents or anything else that needs assistance from the employer.

We look forward to hearing from you

• Insurance compliance 
• Support with employment matters 

See below for our frequently asked questions

Praxis maintains Maritime Labour Convention compliance by undergoing annual audits conducted by Lloyds Register. This is a crucial requirement for all agents providing employment and payroll in maritime settings.

We use a state-of-the-art, bespoke payroll software system that includes automated salary slips and text message notifications. This gives the crew peace of mind, knowing they have been paid on time, and is particularly useful where they do not have access to online banking while at sea.

Employing multinational seafarers, often with differing residencies, on board a yacht engaged on international voyages is a complex process.

We provide several different employment structures to manage the employer and seafarer’s social security obligations. For some yachts, there may be no obligation, whereas for other yachts there may be a requirement to pay contributions into more than one system.

Our experienced team will carry out an initial assessment as well as managing the ongoing liabilities as new seafarers join the yacht.

We screen all new captains and crew before they come on board. This screening includes qualifications, references, resumés and passports to ensure identity and suitability for the position as well as for the yacht’s operation, flag and insurance.

Crew qualifications often have an expiry date, so it is vital to monitor their validity. Our yacht services team will monitor your crew’s qualifications and notify you of up-and-coming expiration dates to ensure safe manning and compliance.

We can assist with a number of insurance requirements, including the essential employer liability cover.

We are not a regulated provider of insurance services but undertake the placement of insurance as part of our duties when acting in the capacity as directors of a yacht owning company or as the legal employer of crew serving on yachts. Our in-house insurance manager can help ensure owners have comprehensive and cost-effective insurance in place.

Yacht Crew Services

Introduction.

Yacht crew are the most important part of a yacht’s operation, ensuring that owners and guests are safe, comfortable and enjoying themselves.

Well-established procedures

Crew employment & payroll.

It is best practice to separate the asset-owning company from the employer and for the provider to be a certified company outside of the EU/UK or US jurisdiction. We have a dedicated crew employment company in Guernsey, which handles all aspects of crew payroll and flag state approved employment contracts.

A personalized approach

Crew recruitment.

Attracting and retaining good crew is essential to long-term success. Our detailed knowledge of the yacht, current crew and owner means our team of crew consultants can carefully select CVs to suit each vessel’s individual needs. We ensure that candidates are properly trained and have the right experience for the position.

Crew Services

150 years of collective crew management experience.

As maritime employment specialists with over 150 years of crew management experience within our team, Quadrant Crew Services offers extremely cost-effective crew employment and payroll services to superyacht owners and technical management firms.

All commercial yachts (and soon private yachts in line with International Labour Law requirements) must meet the regulations stipulated in the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC). As a result, all employers must be regulated and subject to audits to ensure compliance. This makes it essential that crew employment is fully compliant in accordance with Regulation A1.4 of the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC).

Benefits & Protection

As one of the few yacht crew employers that are fully staffed, approved and certified by Lloyds Register in accordance with these regulations, we’re able to assist our clients with the following benefits and protection:

• All Seafarer Employment Agreements are MLC and Flag State approved and fully comply with all maritime employment legislation
• Timely and efficient payment of salaries including multi-currency functionality, including the provision of pay advice slips
• Experienced and professional team providing 24/7 guidance on all crew employment matters
• Every yacht is assigned a dedicated Crew Employment Specialist to ensure continuity and familiarity for the Captain and crew
• Effective management of EU employers’ social security liabilities
• Responsibility for all HR issues, effectively removing this onerous task from the Captain
• In-depth crew security background checks to give yacht owners further peace of mind as to who is onboard their yacht
