Therefore, it is ensured that crew members are not overworked, and do have time for socializing. Every modern vessel is equipped with a crew fitness centre, which is free to work out, a crew deck with a swimming pool and Jacuzzi, and an entertainment room for movies, playing pool, bingo, etc. There is also at least one crew bar specifically for employees to socialize among themselves.
