The sector known as the male-dominated industry remains until now the maritime industry. As a heavy industry, strength and capability are a priority. Therefore, women are less likely to choose to work in this industry which is supported by stereotypes especially in Asian countries. However, for women, the priority is personal safety. The chosen career should be able to make this woman feel safe while working. Align with that, this study mainly aims to analyse the factors that affect participation of women as seafarer in in the Malaysian maritime sector focusing on safety. It shows women’s view of their career as a seafarer in the Malaysian maritime sector as well as to come up with the potential solution for the safety issues for women seafarer.
