AB - In this study, we aim to bolster the sustainability of South Korea’s seafarer profession by analyzing perception differences among students, the public, and active seafarers to propose effective policy directions. From December 2024 to January 2025, a survey of 491 participants was conducted, using ANOVA and t-tests to compare education level, economic stability, job prospects, working conditions, and the need for improved social perceptions. Results highlight significant group disparities, with seafarers underscoring job insecurity and poor working conditions. The study proposes tailored IT-based education programs, expanded welfare, and public campaigns to enhance social perceptions. These policies are expected to increase the profession’s appeal, address workforce shortages, and strengthen maritime industry competitiveness. They will also serve as a foundation for supporting global logistics and national economic sustainability, contributing to long-term industry development.
