Commercial vessels of 500 GT, and above and which trade internationally, are required to carry a MLC, 2006 certificate, as imposed by the MLC convention. These vessels have to carry specific documents such as the Maritime Labour Certificate (MLC) and a Declaration of Maritime Labour Compliance (DMLC) to show that the ships are in compliance with the requirements of the convention.

The Regulations and the Code are organized into general areas under five Titles:

Title 1:        Minimum requirements for seafarers to work on a ship
Title 2:        Conditions of employment
Title 3:        Accommodation, recreational facilities, food and catering
Title 4:        Health protection, medical care, welfare, and social security protection
Title 5:        Compliance and enforcement
