Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

(1) In this Part, references to “training” include hours when the seafarer is—
(a) attending at a place other than the seafarer’s normal place of work, when the seafarer would otherwise be working, for the purpose of receiving training that has been approved by the employer or operator;
(b) travelling, when the seafarer would otherwise be working, between a place of work and a place where the seafarer receives such training;
(c) receiving such training at the seafarer’s normal place of work.
(2) In paragraph (1), hours when the seafarer would “otherwise be working” include any hours when the seafarer is attending at a place or travelling where it is uncertain whether the seafarer would otherwise be working because the seafarer’s hours of work vary either as to their length or in respect of the time at which they are performed.
