C4.2.1.d. Are there any limits on shipowners’ liability?

Under Standard A4.2, national laws or regulations may limit the liability of the shipowner to defray the expense of medical care and board and lodging, as well as the liability to pay wages in full or in part [see C4.2.1.c.] to a period which must not be less than 16 weeks from the day of the injury or the commencement of the sickness [see C4.2.1.f.].
