This work suggests the potential risk of seafarers who are prone to illness from certain diseases. Long-term separation from partners, spouses, family and friends, work as members of a multi-national crew are factors that make life safer. Risk behavior is often encountered in the rest of the population, however, the living and working conditions of the ship and the lack of support of the closest family members, seafarers make up a vulnerable group that is characterized as "migrant workers" in the world of work. It is not risky interest but behavior that leads to risk. There are different types of risk behavior, and as technology advances, there are opportunities for new risky behaviors. Accelerating the process and advancing technology results in the emergence of everyday stress, often caused by lack of time, especially time for rest and sleep. All these are factors that facilitate the emergence of risk behavior that endangers their own and the health of others. Risk behavior is a complex problem with real, sometimes difficult-to-understand causes, and with pronounced difficulties when this behavior wants to change. The aim of this paper is to analyze and study the correlation between long-haul sailors with the occurrence of psychophysical problems, and work is concerned with topics such as working conditions on board, health care, the main reasons for leaving the ship.
