Safety Officer Training Course


Safety Officer Training Course
Safety on board ships has come a long way in reducing accidents, but there is still a lot of scope to improve safety.
Most of the accidents at sea are due to Human Error. Human error can be reduced by proper training and motivation. Accidents mainly happen due to lack of management, taking shortcuts, complacency, attitudes, etc.
The responsibilities to avoid accidents flow from the top down; from the shore establishment to the Master, to each and every individual aboard. "Safety awareness" by all hands is the biggest single factor in reducing accidents.
The role of the Shipboard Safety Officer is to promote Safety Culture by training and motivating the crew. It is the desire of every seafarer to work in a safe and healthy environment.
Neglecting safety not only endangers an individual's life but also his colleagues. It can have serious implications on one's health and the marine environment besides down time and financial losses.
