Health, safety, quality and environment

One system, written to be used at sea

Our safety management system is built on the ISM Code, IMO instruments, flag state rules and class guidance, with consideration of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. It is designed to be workable on watch, not only auditable in an office.

Safety management system

Built on the ISM Code and kept alive by audit

The system covers shipboard operations, emergency preparedness, maintenance, reporting of accidents and non conformities, and management review. Internal audits and drills test it, and corrective actions are tracked to closure rather than filed.

Our designated person ashore has direct access to the highest level of management and is available to any Master at any hour. That single line of contact is the reason problems reach the office while they are still small.

Objectives

Three zeros and one commitment

01

Zero accident

Operations are planned, briefed and verified so that hazards are removed or controlled before work begins.

02

Zero injury

Crew safety governs manning, familiarisation, permit systems and the pace we accept for any job on board.

03

Zero environmental damage

Cargo, bunkering and machinery operations are managed to prevent release to sea or air, with immediate reporting of any deviation.

Beyond preventing incidents, we control and reduce even the emissions we are permitted to make, and we act to protect the best interests of our customers.
