1. General overview

This document serves as Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the Check In process for crew
on board the Mein Schiff fleet.

1.1 Responsibility

Every employer and employee is responsible for carrying out this instruction.

1.2 Complete description

The risk of a COVID 19 outbreak on board must be minimised at all times. It is therefore necessary
to check the embarking crew until further notice. The following procedure applies to the whole crew,
regardless of position and country of origin.

Attention:

 Only PCR Test allowed - No Antibody Test


 Option 1: Homecountry PCR Test not older than 48h
 Option 2: Terminal testing via shoreside laboratory
 The crew member is permitted to embark the ship even the test
result is not available.
 The 14 days of quarantine begins with embarkation

1.3 Written process:


The process is that the crew member is given a swab at the port terminal, then the crew member
embarks the ship and goes directly to his quarantine cabin. In cases where PCR testing cannot be
conducted in the port of embarkation, the swab may also be taken in the home country, provided
that the period between swabbing and embarkation is not more than 48 hours.
From now on the quarantine starts for 14 days.
During the 14 days the crew member receives the results of the PCR test and forwards it to the
ship's doctor.
If this test is negative, the crew member may be released from the quarantine after the 14 days.
The condition for the release is that the crew member has no symptoms.

COVID-19 – Onboarding
How to make a cloth face covering
Regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we have listed steps that are to be taken by all seafarers joining
the Mein Schiff fleet to avoid an outbreak on board our vessels.

Making your own face covering using an old T-Shirt (no sew)
You will need:
• an old T-shirt that you do not want anymore (ideally size small or extra small)
• scissors

Step 1: Cut a straight line across the width of the T-shirt (front and back)
approximately 20cm from the bottom of the T-shirt.

Step 2: From a point 2cm below the top right-hand corner of the fabric,
make a 15cm horizontal cut through both sides of the fabric that is parallel
to the top of the rectangle.

Step 3: Cut down towards the bottom of the fabric until you reach approximately 2cm above the bottom
edge. From here, make another 15cm cut that runs parallel to the bottom of the fabric to make a
rectangle that can be discarded.

Step 4: To make the ties, cut open the edge of the 2 long strips of fabric. Unfold the main piece
of fabric and place over the mouth and the nose. The 4 strips act as ties to hold the cloth face
covering in place and should be tied behind the head and around the neck.

A sewn cloth face covering


You will need:
• two 25cm x 25cm squares of cotton fabric
• two 20cm pieces of elastic (or string or cloth strips),
• needle and thread
• scissors

Step 1: Cut out two 25cm x 25cm squares of cotton fabric. Stack the 2 squares on top of each other.

Step 2: Fold over one side by 0.75cm and hem, then repeat on the opposite side.
Make 2 channels by folding the double layer of fabric over 1.5cm along each side and stitching
this down.How to fold face covering If you only have string, you can make the ties longer and tie
the covering behind your head.

Step 3: Cut down towards the bottom of the fabric until you reach approximately 2cm above the bottom
edge. From here, make another 15cm cut that runs parallel to the bottom of the fabric to make a
rectangle that can be discarded.

Step 4: Gently pull on the elastic so that the knots are tucked inside the hem. Gather the sides of the
covering on the elastic and adjust so the covering fits your face. Then securely stitch the elastic
in place to keep it from slipping. These elastic loops fit over the ears.
