PEME Secondary Review

A PEME Secondary Review is an independent professional review of a submitted Pre-Employment Medical Examination and supporting medical information. It can help identify findings or areas that may require clarification before a crew member joins a vessel.

The service can be requested by shipowners, ship managers, crewing or manning agencies, maritime employers and other authorised representatives acting on behalf of a crew member.

The reviewer may request missing results, clearer documents or additional medical information. The turnaround period begins once the required documentation is complete.

No. Final acceptance remains with the employer, flag state, authority or other responsible organisation applying its own requirements.
