Employment Services ICC Limited (Lesia)

Welcome to Lesia – the crew management and employment payment specialists for yachts and yacht owners.

Employment Services

Employment legislation has become more complex for superyachts and their owners. Lesia can help you untangle the rules and regulations to ensure beneficial owners and charter guests can enjoy the yacht and not be concerned by crew employment matters and payroll.

Whether the concerns are with current Social Security legislation, existing Flag state procedures or the impact of the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC 2006), Lesia is well placed to provide clients with the very best of protection for themselves and the crew.

Lesia is a Crew Management company offering Employment, HR and Payroll services through the Incorporated Cells, (IC) it creates for each yacht. Each IC is an entity in its own right and has all its assets and liabilities protected from the activities of the ICC and any other IC. As a result we are able to provide greater protection to yacht owners and yacht crews.

Lesia offers a full suite of crew management, employment, HR and payroll services to Yacht Owners and Yacht management companies irrespective of where they are based.

Yacht Owners

Owning a yacht, whether for private or commercial use can be one of the most enjoyable experiences there is. 

Lesia works in partnership with Yacht Management companies to enhance and complement the services that they offer.

Crew Services

Lesia provides day to day support for crew not only whilst they are on board the yacht, but when they are at home as well.

Consultancy

We carry out consultancy work for clients and non-clients on a regular basis on anything connected with crew employment, whether that be reviewing SEA, HR issues, jurisdiction of SEA, MLC, 2006 or day to day crew management. Further information is available on request.

Lesia provides day to day support for crew not only whilst they are on board the yacht, but when they are at home as well. Whether that be confirming earnings for mortgages, VISA applications, travel documents or anything else that needs assistance from the employer.

We look forward to hearing from you

Lesia are pleased to have Parish Group as their Guernsey Registered Agent

Since 2012 Lesia has had a representative office in Monaco
