DRUG & ALCOHOL POLICY
Recognizing the negative effects of Drug and Alcohol abuse, the Company has adopted the following stringent
measures and controls, not only meeting but surpassing ICS / OCIMF Industry standards:
A Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) of 40mg/100 ml (0.04%) or greater is considered as alcohol
impairment and is not tolerated.
 The Company has adopted a “No Alcohol/Dry–Ship Policy” and does not supply any Alcohol onboard.
Additionally the Company does not allow the acceptance of complementary offers and courtesy gifts by
Suppliers onboard Company vessels.
 The possession, distribution and use of Alcohol onboard is strictly prohibited and will lead to immediate

 Any crew member who presents alcohol impairment above the acceptable BAC level will be immediately
dismissed and will not be accepted for future employment with the Company.
 Drugs and Alcohol are not allowed onboard. A strict gangway watch is implemented and all crew who

to be subjected to a search and Alcohol Test will equal to admission of guilt and the crew member will
be dismissed.
 All Shipboard Personnel on shore leave, should abstain from alcohol consumption which would result in
a BAC higher than the acceptable 40 mg/100ml (0.04%), if they have been scheduled for duties, ashore
or afloat, within the next four (4) hours. Before assuming their duties, they will be retested for alcohol to
ensure that their BAC is 0.00 %.
The above only applies if it does not contradict the Local Terminal D&A Policy. If Local Terminal D&A
policy is stricter, then the Terminal’s Policy will apply without any exceptions.
The Officer of the Watch should not hand over the watch to a relieving Officer, if there is reason to
believe that the latter is under alcohol impairment.
 Use of prescribed Drugs for strictly medical purposes is allowed, only under controlled conditions and
following medical advice or recipe.

ANTIBRIBERY POLICY
The Company is committed to conducting business in an ethical and honest manner, and is committed to
implementing and enforcing systems that ensure bribery is prevented in all business dealings and relationships
wherever it operates. The Company has a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption activities.
This Antibribery and Anticorruption Policy applies to all Company & Company Subsidiary Employees at any
level ( Onboard and Ashore, Permanent or Temporary), including Senior Executive and Financial Officers and
members of the Board of Directors , as well as Contractors, Trainees, Seconded Staff, Agents and any other
persons associated with the Company ( including Third Parties).
In the context of this Policy, “Third Party” refers to any individual or organization the Company meets and
works with. Any arrangements the Company makes with a Third Party, is subject to clear Contractual Terms,
including specific provisions that require Third Party to comply with minimum standards and procedures
relating to anti-bribery and anti-corruption.
Bribery refers to the illegal act of offering, giving, promising, asking, agreeing, receiving, accepting, or
soliciting something of value or of an advantage, in order to induce or influence an action or decision.
Corruption is the misuse of entrusted power for private gain involving bribery.
Gifts and Hospitality: The Company will accept appropriate gestures of hospitality and goodwill as long as the
offered gift meets the following requirements:

 Is not made with the expectation of a return-favour.

 It is given in the name of the Company, not the Individual’s name

religion/culture who may feel offended by the decline) the gift may be accepted, as long as this is declared to the
Company.
Facilitation Payments: The Company does not accept and will not make any facilitation payments with the
purpose of expediting routine governmental actions.
Political Contributions: The Company will not make donations, whether in cash, kind, or by any other means,
to support any political parties or candidates since such donations may be perceived as an attempt to gain an
improper business advantage.
Charitable Contributions: The Company accepts and encourages the act of donating to charities – whether
through services, knowledge, time, or direct financial contributions– and agrees to disclose all charitable
contributions it makes, as long as it ensured that they are not used to facilitate and conceal acts of bribery.
Employee Responsibilities
All Company Employees are equally responsible for the prevention, detection and reporting of bribery and other
forms of corruption. They are required to avoid any activities that could lead to or imply a breach of this anti-
bribery policy. If any employee has reason to believe or suspect that an instance of bribery or corruption has

degrading tasks inappropriate for an Employee’s position or taking away areas of
responsibility from an Individual for no justifiable reasons).
 Consistent ignoring or interrupting of an Employee in front of co-Workers.
 Personal attacks (angry outbursts, sudden rages or displays of temper, excessive vulgarity and
“name-calling” against an Individual or Group, often for trivial reasons).

SEXUAL HARASSMENT POLICY
It is Company Policy that every person has the right to be treated with dignity and respect and to be
free of all forms of harassment in the workplace.
The Company has a zero tolerance approach to any form of harassment as this is contrary to the
established high standards of conduct of the Organization.
Should any Company Employee experience any behaviour that may be considered as sexual
harassment towards oneself or another Employee, he/she is strongly encouraged to report this as soon
as possible.
This Policy is also extended to any Third Party Staff, who work for the Company.
Sexual Harassment is defined as “unwanted contact of a sexual nature in the workplace or in
connection with work which has the purpose or effect of violating an Individual’s dignity or creating
an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for that Individual.”
Behaviour that constitutes Sexual Harassment may include:
 Unwelcome behaviour of sexual nature, physical or verbal.
 Unwelcome, inappropriate remarks or verbal sexual advances/proposals.
 Indecent comments, jokes, insinuations, relating to a Person’s physical appearance, private
life or sexual orientation.
 Unwanted physical contact such as patting, hugging, kissing, pinching or other inappropriate
touching.
 Request for sexual favours in exchange for benefits at work.
 Continued suggestions for private social activity, after it has been made clear that such
requests or suggestions are unwelcome.
 Non-verbal conduct of a sexual nature, such as display of sexually suggestive pictures, objects
or written material or sexually suggestive gestures.
It is essential to emphasize that sexual harassment refers to conduct which is unwanted and
unwelcome to the recipient. As this is the key factor that distinguishes it from friendly, flirtatious or
other relations that are freely and mutually entered into, it is important that a person who believes that
she or he is the victim of sexual harassment clearly communicates this (either directly or through
Third Party) to the harasser who is engaging in the unwanted and unwelcome behaviour.
The Company encourages its Employees to attempt to directly resolve sexual harassment-related
issues through a dialogue and an informal resolution of conflict. Individuals are encouraged to directly
notify the presumed harasser that his/ her behaviour is unwelcome and unacceptable and that this
inappropriate conduct should immediately cease.
Where the employment status of the harasser is such that a direct discussion is difficult, or if the
harasser does not cease his/her inappropriate behaviour, then the offended Employee may officially
address a complaint to the HR Department in Office, or to the Master onboard.
An individual who believes that she or he has been or is being harassed, should make personal written

deployed.
Third Parties boarding the vessel for Inspections, Audits or any other reason, will be advised
of the spaces, which are monitored by CCTV.
 The CCTV system will be used to monitor locations where there is no reasonable expectation
of privacy, as defined by Law ( i.e toilets, changing rooms, crew cabins, messrooms)
 Access to CCTV Footage will be restricted to the duly Authorised Person (i.e the Master or
the Ship Security Officer or as authorised by DPA for safety reasons).
These Persons should be trained and well informed about the internal Policies regarding the
use of the CCTV.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

1. INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE


Seafarers and Superintendents are very frequent travelers. They either travel to reach their designated
vessels or to be repatriated. Very often, they travel to places far from their homelands, sometimes
spending several days to reach.
Technically, even while working on Vessels, Seafarers are constantly travelling to new countries
having different Laws, cultures and lifestyles. Although countries around the world are safe, Seafarers
may possibly face troubles in regions with strict Laws and Social Norms.

For Seafarers and Superintendents there can rarely be a “Zero-Threat” area in the world.

Moreover, constant travelling also takes a toll on their mental and physical health, especially because
of the limited Rest and Recreational time available on vessels.
Though Seafarers and Superintendents are constantly open to dangerous elements and stressful
situations while travelling, both internationally and domestically, unfortunate incidents can be avoided
if risks are identified and assessed by Pre-travel Planning, along with Travel Risk Awareness.
This “Company Travel Guide” addresses the common risks that are likely to occur while travelling and
offers relevant guidance.

2. TRAVEL PLANNING
Travel Planning is the first step towards a safe and smooth journey. Effective travel planning involves
basic understanding of the security levels required at and while en-route to the destination. It helps to
deal with different threats to the safety of Seafarers and Superintendents and their property by
developing precautions.
Even the most frequent travelers can become victims of crime, misdirection, transportation delays or
medical problems in unfamiliar environments, making any loss of belongings or personal attack more
difficult to deal with. As a matter of fact, international travel presents additional challenges, as one has
to deal with different Legal Systems, Languages and Cultures, unfamiliar transportation and
communication infrastructure.

3. ASSESSING THE TRAVEL RISKS


While considering Travel Risks, the Risk Assessment should include but is not limited to:
 Social issues and the Political climate.
 General crime activity and corruption levels.
 Any activities of Terrorist Groups.
 Tendency for kidnap and extortion.
 Labour volatility.
 Local Ethnic / Extremist religious issues.
 Recommended local Hotels and Restaurants.
 Areas and specific roads to be avoided.
 Airport and Transportation Security.
 Health and Public Safety.
 General climatic concerns.

Manual COMPANY TRAVEL POLICY FOR THE Revision: 03
(001) SAFETY AND SECURITY OF Eff. Date: 28/02/2022
SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

While planning the travel, it is advisable to check Governmental websites that contain up-to-date Travel
Advice, Country Information and Entry Requirements, in addition to Health, Safety and Security
advices. There are several websites that offer open source research related to safety and security in
foreign countries. These websites integrate warnings, advising travellers not to travel in certain
countries, along with other types of information, which are key elements in pre-travel planning.

A good source of Travel Guidance – Including governmental Travel Risk evaluation – used by Prime
is the US Department of State – Bureau of Consular Affairs – Travel Advisories section. Information
contained therein can be cross-check with per country security outlook provided through the CIA
World Factbook Search function.

The US Department of State – Bureau of Consular Affairs, issues Travel Advisories ranked in four (4)
different levels of Travel Risk:
 Level 1: Exercise Normal Precautions.
 Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution.
 Level 3: Reconsider Travel.
 Level 4: Do Not Travel.
It is Prime’s policy not to allow Crew changes and / or Office Personnel / Superintendents to travel to
and from countries ranked in Level 3 & 4 as per US Department of State Travel Advisories’ system
above.
Above US Department of State list of Travel Advisories will be circulated by the CSO / A-CSO on a
monthly basis as a minimum. However all Seafarers and Superintendents are also strongly advised to
frequently visit and check relevant web site prior any business travel arrangement being made.

4. PASSPORT AND IDENTIFICATION


It is prudent to remove all types of Personal Identification from Travel Cases and Travel Bags and
alternate them with other identifying features. There should be no reason to publicize Identity and
Address. One option can be to put a Tag along with a Business Address without the Company’s name
on the baggage. In the event of having to retrieve a lost baggage, a picture ID with proof of Business
Address should be sufficient.
A Passport is the most valuable possession of anyone travelling internationally, as it is the best form
of identification and proof of citizenship. Thus, utmost care should be taken to safeguard it.

Important points:
 Never use a Passport as Deposit for security.
 Leave the Passport in the Hotel’s Safe Box when possible.
 If carrying a Passport, hide it securely in the Room or Baggage.
It is suggested to keep a copy of the passport information and an extra set of Passport Photographs to
expedite replacement in the event of loss or theft. Leave a photocopy at the Company’s Office and at
Home, so that a Key Contact can send a copy, if required. Applying for a Duplicate Passport for the
event of loss of the original passport can be also considered.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

In certain countries it is a normal procedure that, while checking into Hotels, the Agent’s
Representative takes away the passport to complete the Immigration Registration and other
formalities. It is important to ensure that the Passport is returned the as soon as possible!

5. CURRENCY AND CREDIT CARDS


 Carry with you the Payment Receipt of currency received from the Company, as this is liable to be
checked in certain Airports to authenticate the Foreign Currency carried.
 Foreign currency should be obtained in advance.
 Avoid carrying large amounts of money when you leave the Hotel for taking a walk, meal etc.
 Use the Hotel Room’s Safe Box to secure your money.
 Limit the number of credit cards carried.
 Be well familiar of the Credit Limits of each one of them.
 Check with your Credit Card Provider and become fully familiarized with the Emergency Contact
details and procedures to be followed in case of loss / theft of your Credit Cards.
 Whenever possible, Cash should be kept in an easily accessible inside pocket or in a money belt,
well secured.

The Standard Rule is:


Carry ONLY what you need and keep it safe, where ONLY YOU can find it.

Immediately report the loss or theft of Cash, Credit Cards or other valuables to the Local Authorities.
Keep in mind to request a Copy of the Police Report for Insurance purposes.

5.1 SAFE USE OF AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINES (ATMS)


 Use ATMs during the day and inside Banks (where possible).
 Do NOT use an ATM, if you see anything or anyone suspicious.
 At night, use only well-lit ATMs.
 NEVER walk away from an ATM with cash still in your hand.

6. GENERAL MEDICAL GUIDANCE.


Make sure all Medical and Travel Insurances are made available before your departure, in order to
avoid problems. Also ensure that:
 Insurance policies, apart from the ones which are provided by the P&I Clubs and the companies
themselves and other relevant documents are up-to-date and cover the destination to be visited.
 Medical Evacuation is covered.
 Loss or Theft Coverage for cash and valuables is covered.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

At all times, carry a General Informative Card along with your Insurance Details and Medical
Information such as:
 Blood Type,
 Medications used,
 Allergies and
 Your Physician's Names and Contact Numbers.

6.1 HEALTH PRECAUTIONS


Irrespective of the destination, Seafarers and Superintendents travelling abroad can take simple but
effective precautions to minimize risks to their health.
Some basic rules include:
 Keep washing hands frequently with soap and water, or carry with you a disinfecting gel.
 Use proper PPE e.g. Face Mask, Sterile Gloves e.t.c.
 Try to avoid unpasteurized dairy products.
 Eat cooked food only, or fruits and vegetables you have washed and peeled yourself.
When ordering at restaurants, avoiding eating fresh salads- prefer boiled vegetables.
 Never eat undercooked meats, raw eggs or raw shellfish.
 Avoid drinking tap-water, drinks with ice, ice cubes and salads washed in tap water.
 It is better to drink Bottled Water or carbonated drinks purchased in cans or sealed bottles.
 Avoid food purchased from street vendors.
 Where the risk of malaria exists, take preventive medication before, during and after your trip
or as advised by a Certified Medical Practitioner.
 Use of insect repellents is very helpful.
o Wear long-sleeved shirts and trousers,
o Stay in well-screened areas and
o Request impregnated netting around beds, if the accommodation is not in a screened or
air-conditioned location.
 Keep your feet dry. Do not step barefooted in the Hotel Room or Shower in order avoid fungal
and parasitic infections.
 If you want to swim, swim in well-chlorinated swimming pools only. The sea is usually safe
(although it may be contaminated by sewage).
 Carrying your medical certificate along is very helpful in times where you’d be required to
produce your Blood Type, Allergies, any specific medical condition and special requirements.
In particular and considering the COVID-19 Pandemic, Management Company has complied and
properly distributed a detailed and comprehensive COVID-19 Management Plan in compliance with
IMO, IHO & Flag Administration Guidelines as well as Industry Best Practices. An integral part of
this Plan is Annex K - “Protocol of Seafarers & Superintendents Joining” that documents in a simple
but effective manner and for any / all stages of the travelling process COVID-19 precautionary
measures that should be taken to avoid exposure.

COVID-19 Management Plan Annex K - “Protocol of Seafarers & Superintendents Joining”


should always be consulted and implemented during any travelling arrangement planned.

Of course one can carry a Personal Medical Kit for the trip but it should be carefully packed and sealed.
The kit may include the following:
 Some bandages or plasters.
 A few disinfectant wipes.
 Medications for any sort of stomach discomfort.
 Over-the-counter pain reliever.
 Medicines for Flue.
 Allergy medicine.
 Tweezers and scissors (not in carry-on baggage).

Seafarers and Superintendents travelling with pre-existing medical related problems should consider
carrying a letter from their doctor describing the condition and prescription medication, including the
Medicines’ Generic Names.

All medication should be kept in their Original and well-labelled Containers.


(Do not remove your medicines from their containers to place them in pill-boxes!
This may place you in trouble!)
Seafarers and Superintendents should be aware that some prescription drugs that are legal in one
country may be illegal in another.

6.2 MEDICATION AND VACCINATION.


Some countries require Visitors to have Certificates of Vaccination against Yellow Fever and
Cholera (plague). Seafarers and Superintendents must keep their Inoculation Records validated
and ready for any inspections.
Typhoid vaccinations are also recommended if travellers are visiting areas where the disease is
present. In addition, some Countries require long-term visitors to be tested for HIV (Human
Immunodeficiency Virus) before entry.
Check whether the area to which you are travelling and the transit points in between are Malaria
Endemic. Read Malaria guidance and seek advice form you Doctor on any required preventive
medication.
If in doubt about any health issue relevant to the countries through which you are travelling, check
entry requirements on websites or with the Embassy or Consulate of the Country you are to visit.

7. EMERGENCY INFORMATION.
Before departing, it is always advisable to make a LIST with all the Emergency Contact Numbers such
as those noted below. In addition, make a note of these onto your cell phone.
 Key Contacts.
 Business Emergency Contacts.
 Emergency Medical Contacts.
 Insurance (Medical and Travel).
 Important numbers of all transportation services such as Airlines, Travel / Local Agents,
etc.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

 Contact details of Credit Card Companies and related Banks.


 Embassy Contact Details.
 Local Emergency Services, where known.
 Other information that could be listed and kept secure, perhaps on a card or folded paper in
a wallet.
In your Wallet and Waist Belts (ensure that they are well secured – and under you coat or jacket if
possible) keep:
 Passport and ID information.
 Airline ticket numbers.
 Credit Card numbers.
 Traveller’s Cheques numbers (cross off numbers as they are used) and issuing bank contact
details.

Don’t forget to leave a copy of the entire list with your Key Contacts at home.

7.1 EMERGENCY SITUATIONS

Contact numbers of the Local Agent and Embassy should always be kept handy at all times.

7.2 EMERGENCY RESPONSE COMMUNICATION


If an emergency or civic crisis takes place, whether it is a natural disaster, a terrorist incident,
transportation accident or personal attack, travellers should immediately:
 Contact their Key Contacts, Family and the Company, as soon as possible.
 Contact their Country’s Embassy or Consulate for advice, if travelling internationally.
 Keep self-informed about the crisis, by continuously monitoring the news for updates and
information.
In the event of illness or medical emergency, the Company’s Security Contact, the Company’s
Key Contact (Local Agent), the Embassy or the Consulate will be able to provide a list of Medical
Specialists, Doctors and Hospitals nearby to the Travellers’ location.

8. HOTEL SAFETY
Although Hotel reservations are mainly made by the Company, Seafarers and Superintendents must
ensure that a suitable Hotel is booked for them.
 If possible, only accept well known or recommended Hotels.
 Seek advice on where NOT to stay.
 Avoid using non-brand name Hotels without investigating them first.
 Also, always make reservations in advance.
 It is unwise, to not make any reservation and arrive at an Airport with the expectation of finding a
Hotel room easily.
 Even if accommodation is available, it may be at an undesirable or unfriendly / risky area.

(001) SAFETY AND SECURITY OF Eff. Date: 28/02/2022
SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

When it comes to Personal Security, carefully consider what is Safe in comparison with what is
apparently Economical.

If possible, try and get a Hotel room between the second and seventh floor. This limits easy access to
the room from the ground and yet is low enough to be reached by the Fire Squad in case of a Fire
Emergency.
Other Precautions include:
 When possible, place all your valuables in the Hotel’s safe box.
 Secure all bags that are left unattended in the room, with security ties.
 Keep the door locked while in the room.
 Make use of spy-holes and door-chains on Hotel doors, when you are in the Room.
 Ensure that you read the Fire instructions and know where the nearest Fire Exits are.
 Count the number of doors between your room and the nearest exit (the corridor may become
smoke-filled) - something very similar to what Seafarers or superintendents should be familiarized
with on-board routines.
 Try to avoid public areas of the Hotel, if in unstable areas, as criminal activity is high in these
locations.
 Avoid night-time activity away from the Hotel. If, however, this is necessary, always be very
alerted, if drinks are being poured over you.
 Never hand your coat / jacket to the Bar’s/ Restaurants wardrobe, when you have in the pockets
and personal ID documents etc.
 Avoid using your own (or full) name when making Social Reservations, but always bear in mind
that in some areas, the Police might consider suspicious the use of a different name.

9. LEGAL ISSUES
Travellers are subjected to the Laws of all the countries they visit and not just to the Laws of the
countries they are citizens of. Before departure from home, it is a good practice to gain an
understanding about varied Customs and Laws (Libraries, Travel Agents, Websites, Embassies /
Consulates and Tourist Offices are good resources of information).
 Obtain appropriate Visas for the visiting countries.
 Check prevailing requirements for Driving Licenses and Insurance before driving in other
countries.
NEVER deliver a package for or to anyone. The package could contain drugs, contraband or other
dangerous / illegal pieces of material.
On certain occasions the Company in the normal transactions of business activities may request some
Documents and other small items or equipment to be carried by individuals joining a vessel. In such
cases the items shall be clearly identified by the Company. All necessary supporting documentation
must be provided and carried.
Most important! The items should NOT be of a hazardous or illegal nature. Ensure legal documentation
(especially insurance) is in order before departure.
In some countries, it may be illegal to sell personal items such as cameras, laptops or jewellery. Check
Local Regulations before doing so.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

In some countries, there are strict restrictions regarding photography at locations such as:
 Port Areas.
 Harbour Locations,
 Any / All Military / Police Installation.
 Industrial / Transport Infrastructure &
 Border Crossings Areas.

Taking photos of the above mentioned locations, can lead to confiscation of the camera and film or
penalties, including a fine or even imprisonment.

Beware when being in possession of Prescription Drugs while travelling. Those that are legal in
one country can be illegal in others. Check the Laws regarding the same. In addition, some countries
do not distinguish between possession and trafficking drugs and have lengthy mandatory prison
sentences. A Letter from a Doctor showing that the Drugs are required for Medical Reasons may
be necessary and should be insisted upon.

10. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS


While there is no guaranteed system to prevent you from becoming a Victim of theft, robbery and
attack, a number of precautions can be taken to reduce such risks. Following these generic procedures
or guidelines can, depending on the destination, provide some protection.

10.1 GENERAL
Some General Precautions are the following:
 Maintain a low profile by dressing conservatively – avoid wearing any expensive looking
jewellery or watches.
 Be aware of Local Customs! Avoid giving any sort of offense through ignorance.
 Avoid habitual patterns and change your travel / walking routes.
 Always be alert of the possibility of being followed in a foreign land.
 Carry only the minimum amount of Cash and Valuables. Place all valuables you carry in
the inside pockets of your coat / jacket, and take extra care, when you take you coat / jacket
off!!
 Limit the number of Credit Cards carried. Prefer to use Credit Cards or Travellers’ checks
instead of cash. However, bear in mind that in areas of civil unrest, Credit Cards may not
be of any use. It might be sensible and helpful to have a sufficient amount of cash for getting
to a safe place.
 Do not pack sensitive or proprietary information in your check-in luggage. Double-
envelope it and carry it by hand.
 Lock passport, ID and other important documents along with Cash and other valuables in
the Hotel’s safe box when exiting the hotel for a meal etc.
 NEVER leave a laptop unattended and only travel with the minimum amount of data. Use
removable media / data storage. Avoid having top confidential data. Do not keep
pornographic videos or photos in your Laptop. In some countries this is illegal.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

 It is recommended to affix an identification label or tag (not including your name) on the
outside of laptop to avoid confusion while processing it through Airport or Port Security
Checkpoints.
 If you wear glasses, pack an extra pair in your carry-on luggage.
 Avoid arrival and departure at night time except when accompanied by an authorized
Vessel’s or Company’s Agent.
 Be very alert when having conversation with strangers, whatever their appearance. Do not
reveal personal or travel information .Avoid discussing religion or politics.
 Travel light with the least amount of luggage possible. You can then move quickly.
 In certain cases where the Company’s or the Vessel’s agents are not available and when
leaving a Hotel by taxi, arrange for the Hotel to book the taxi with a reputable firm and
ensure the taxi that arrives is from the same Firm (arranged by the Hotel) before entering
the vehicle.
 Once on the Aircraft, keep precious or expensive items in the hand-luggage. Place it
beneath your seat rather than the overhead compartment.
 While travelling by train, only enter and remain in engaged or occupied wagons.
 When using sleeping compartments on trains, where possible lock sleeping compartment
doors (a simple rubber door wedge can be useful). If this is not possible, secure your luggage
and sleep on top of any of your valuable items.
 Do not accept food or indulge in any drinks with strangers.
 When dealing with authorities remain calm. Being anxious will only increase their
suspicion.
 If necessary, contact your Embassy. Insist in doing so.

NEVER indulge in jokes about drugs, religion, weapons and / or explosives.

10.2 STREET SAFETY


Be 'street safe' or 'street wise'.

The following tips may increase your personal security:


 Trust your instincts!! Leave areas where you feel uneasy, at once.
 Stay out of reach if a driver stops, for example, to ask you directions.
 Avoid shortcuts and hang about in well-lit areas.
 If possible, remain in groups.
 Avoid civil demonstrations and social disturbances.
 Walk near the pavement / curb avoiding doorways and alleys.
 Beware of pickpockets!! Always walk FACING the traffic. In such a way you have control
of who / what is approaching from the road, i.e. “pickpockets on motorbikes”. Locations such
as train and bus stations, airports, subways, tourist sites and large open markets tend to attract
pickpockets.

(001) SAFETY AND SECURITY OF Eff. Date: 28/02/2022
SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

Common techniques used by pickpockets also include:


 Manhandling.
 Spilling something on your clothing.
 Asking for directions or the time.
 Pretending to be beggars, requesting small items (like coins, cigarettes, bus tickets) to
distract you. Never take out your wallet to give money to street beggars. Most
probably, you will be robbed.
 Pretending to be an innocent looking aged couple, asking you to take a photo of them.
They may be members of a “gang”, (they usually rob your waist belt, where you may
possibly keep your wallet and your ID documents).

10.3 HOW TO AVOID BEING ROBBED


Useful precautions include:
 Tucking shoulder bags under the arm and holding them securely by the strap in front of you.
 Putting wallets or purses in front INSIDE pockets or using a money belt concealed under
clothing.
 Covering wallets in rubber bands could be possible in making them harder to remove without
notice.
 Let go your bag if it is grabbed!!! Remember!! Your life is more precious than your possessions.
If you think you are being followed:
 Remain in or go to public and populated areas.
 Approach Police Officers or go to crowded places.
 Enter Hotels or shops, as they often have Security Personnel and if possible, take some time
before you exit.
 Walk around the block to see if the person is still following you.
 Do not go down badly-lit or deserted streets / alleys.
 Know how to use a payphone and have a supply of the correct change or phone cards.
 If confronted do not fight back!! Just hand-over your Cash and Valuables.
 Remember!! Your life is more precious than your possessions.

10.4 PERILS SUCH AS “KIDNAP”


The risk to most of Seafarers or Superintendents of being kidnapped and held for ransom is low, but it
is nevertheless important to assess the risk, before travelling. The greatest danger is what is known as
'express kidnap', where individuals are abducted and held for a short period, during which they are
generally robbed or transported from ATM to ATM to gather Cash.
The Risks can be minimized by taking some basic precautions:
 Use trusted and recognized Hotels and transport services ONLY, all of which should be
arranged in advance and, whenever possible, avoid travelling alone in high-risk areas.
 Advise your local Company Contact or the Agent, Embassy or Consulate of your arrival.
 Do not discuss personal information and travel itineraries with outsiders.
 Do not leave Personal Information in Hotel rooms.
 Verify the identity of any Visitor, before allowing entry into the Hotel room.
 Maintain contact with Company Personnel or Agents on a regular basis.

(001) SAFETY AND SECURITY OF Eff. Date: 28/02/2022
SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

 Avoid establishing a set travel / walking pattern and routine. Kidnappers usually conduct
surveillance to determine travel patterns and identify a time and place for the kidnapping.
 Use only official or Hotel-provided Taxi Services instead of selecting taxis at random.
 NEVER enter an unmarked taxi!! – even if it is much cheaper!!
 Whenever possible, travel with people you know.
 Avoid driving on remote roads.
 Never walk on deserted streets.
 Do not accept unanticipated packages, especially from strangers!!
 Be watchful if an unknown person is trying to gain your confidence.
 Be attentive of your surroundings and report suspicious activity to Hotel Security or the Agents.
 Being alert is one of the best defences against being kidnapped.

10.5 PACK YOUR BAGS MORE EFFICIENTLY


A well-packed and a lightly packed bag is one of the best ways to make your journey a bit more
comfortable. If your possessions take up less space, you can use a smaller bag.
It is better to roll your clothes and put them aside before tucking them in the suitcases or luggage bags.
This avoids unnecessary wrinkles too. Boiler Suits and Safety shoes, if carried along, must go in first.
Thereafter, you can start adding heavier layers of the clothes like jeans or pants that you have rolled
earlier. Continue by adding up to the lightest of the rolled up clothes such as light T-shirts or
undergarments. Other personal effects such as toiletries, etc. should go on top as the toiletry bags
containing liquids are asked to be removed for certain security screenings.
Have a set of clothes and a few essentials (a set of T-Shirts and fresh pair of underwear) packed right
in your hand baggage, if you have to spend a night at your destination without the luggage. If possible,
carry a boiler suit as well in your hand baggage. You might be required to directly join work once on
vessel, or your luggage may be lost and returned to you after some days. Also keep essential documents
and items readily available such as phone charger, a duvet, etc. in your hand-baggage.

10.6 SMART PHONES AND LAPTOPS


There are certain Countries which do not allow the Seafarers travelling with their Smart Phones or
Cameras or even Laptops. While it is important to be connected to the world, some Nations are totally
against it due to Security reasons. So it is important to find out which countries have such restrictions
before flying out of home.
Ask the Company to give details about it or check on the Internet. It is better to be safe than to find
yourself giving up your valuable possession.

10.7 DOCUMENTATION
Travel Insurance is very important when travelling. It must be documented correctly as is in your
Official Identity (check that you name is correctly written).
Make sure that all the required work-related Certificates and Documents, such as a Medical Fitness
Certificate, Joining Letters, Contract Letters, etc. are carried along in your Hand-Luggage. You can
also scan and copy the required Documents into a USB drive and keep with you, should you lose the
hard copies.

SEAFARERS & OFFICE PERSONNEL

In case you carry a UBS with Personal, Company and Confidential data, you should ensure it is secured
with a suitable “password”. A good idea would be to also keep photocopies back home or if you are a
tech-driven person, upload your documents through an online Cloud services, such as Dropbox,
OneDrive or Google Drive and get access to them anywhere you are.

10.8 GET A FREQUENT-FLYER CARD AND GET BETTER BENEFITS


Seafarers / Superintendents travelling frequently, should opt-in / sign up for an Airline Frequent-Flyer
Card that could be used to collect reward points in exchange for travel upgrades, better Hotel
reservations, vacation trips and other extra benefits.

10.9 CONTAINERIZE SMALLER ITEMS


Travel-sized containers are easily available and are really useful when one needs to pack things like
toothpaste, lotions, and similar other tube-based items. If you are flying, it is important to know the
limits of the liquids allowed to be carried on the flight.

10.10 CARRY OUT A HOME INVENTORY


When Seafarers or Superintendents are out of their homes for large periods of time in a year, their
homes or apartments are particularly vulnerable for theft or other emergencies.
 Make sure you have a House Insurance arranged.
 Carry out an Inventory of important items.
 Install a home security system.
This will not only bring you peace of mind while at work, but it will also be helpful when claiming
loses from the insurance companies.

1.1 COMPANY HISTORY


The Company was established in Monrovia, Liberia in 1998 as “Latanko Marine Management Co.”
It was officially renamed to “Prime Marine Management Inc.” on 22/12/1999.

Since its establishment, Prime Marine Management Inc. has managed Oil Tankers, Chemical
Tankers, LPG Carriers and Bulk Carriers.

In detail:
 Until November 2002, the Company managed Bulk Carrier vessels.
 Until February 2006, the Company managed OBO Vessels.
 Since June 2009, the Company manages Gas Carriers (LPG).

Since May 1, 2013 the Fleet Management was transferred to:


 Prime Tanker Management Inc.

1. Vessels’ reporting of Safety related events


The Company requires from the Fleet Vessels rapid notification, of ALL urgent safety-related and
Environmental related events which occur onboard.

These events include:


 All Accidents (Injuries/Fatalities) as per “OCIMF Marine Injury Reporting”.
 Incidents causing damage to the ship, equipment, fittings, or Third Party property.
 Incidents involving cargo or bunker spillage, leakage or contamination and any other incident
which results in pollution.
 Hazardous occurrences (Near Misses).
 Deficiencies and Observations raised during Third Party inspections.
 Defects of equipment, machinery or instrumentation.
 Non-Conformities within the IMS, including Non-conformities related to breaches of statutory
requirements.

2. OCIMF Marine Injury Reporting Format


The Company has adopted the OCIMF Marine Injury Reporting Format, in order to have a consistent
method of collecting, classifying and reporting data on all injuries occurring onboard and for
“benchmarking” (e.g Intertanko etc).
The Indexes used are:
 Lost Time Injury Frequency (LTIF)
 Total Recordable Case Frequency (TRCF)
 Total Recordable Case Frequency ( TRCF )- including First Aid Cases ( FAC)
as adopted and reported by Intertanko.

3. Near Misses
“Just Culture” Approach
The Company strongly encourages the reporting and investigation of Near Misses and adopts a “just
culture”.
The Company guarantees :
 A “Just Culture” in Near Miss reporting.
 Confidentiality for reporting Near Misses, meaning that after the completion of the investigation,
personal information is removed and remains confidential.
 Thorough Near Miss investigations.
 Processing the results of the Near Miss Investigation, in order to determine training needs, or IMS
improvement requirements.

The Near-Miss Investigation Process


Shipboard Procedure
 The number of Near Miss Reports per Month per Vessel is an established Target (KPI).
This KPI is set during the Annual Management Review Meeting, which is held at the beginning
of each year and is communicated to the Fleet vessels, by an Official Circular.
 When a Near Miss is reported to the OOW or the Master, an investigation is carried out,
especially for those Near Misses which are likely to re-occur and /or which could have had severe
consequences.

Page 6 of 15
Integrated Prime Tanker Management Inc. CHAPTER 10
Management System Prime Gas Management Inc.
Manual Revision: 05
(001) IMPROVEMENT Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

 The Root Cause /causal factors must be identified and the corrective/ preventive actions to
prevent re-occurrence must be determined.
 Upon completion of the investigation process, a Near Miss Report must be issued by the Master
or Safety Officer.
In addition, the Company encourages all crew to directly report Near Misses, by e-mail to the
e-mail address emergency@prime-marine.net.
 All the Near Miss must be discussed onboard during the next Safety Meeting.
 In case the Near Miss is serious and it could have resulted in a very serious accident /incident,
then a Safety Meeting must be held immediately after the event.
 Near Miss reports for very serious cases, that could have resulted in severe loss, must be sent to
the Officer by e-mail, immediately after the Initial investigation onboard
 Simple Near Miss Reports must be sent by monthly mail to the Company.

Office Procedure
 The S&Q Department is responsible to collect, review and record all the Near Miss reports and
process them in order to identify trends.
 All the Near Misses, are reviewed by of the S&Q Department and the comments are
communicated to each vessel for discussion during the next Safety Meeting onboard.
 If a serious Near Miss occurs on a Fleet vessel, which could have resulted in severe loss, then the
same procedure as for Accidents /Incidents is followed i.e.
o The case is investigated by the “Accident Investigation Committee” which will consist of
members related to the nature of the Near Miss ( i.e if it is a Marine incident, the committee
will consist of Master Mariners etc from the Marine/Vetting department and the Operations
department )
o A “circular” e-mail is sent to all Fleet Vessels analyzing the Root Cause(s).
 When required, corrective actions are implemented immediately across the Fleet.
 All the Near Misses are analyzed on a Quarterly basis, and a relevant Circular, is issued by the
S&Q Department.
 The results of the Near Misses Analysis and Investigation, as well as the trends and any
corrective/preventive action taken, are discussed during the Management Review Meetings.

4. Defect Reports
All Deficiencies in critical machinery and equipment must be immediately reported to the Office.
Defect Reports must be issued for any ship’s equipment, machinery or system damage, malfunction
or breakdown which requires:
 Delivery of spare parts
 Shore assistance or
 When the Defect cannot be rectified by shipboard personnel immediately.
The Defect Reports can be issued by either vessel’s Master or Chief Engineer or by Office Fleet
Manager, Ship Manager or Assistant Superintendent.
The Defect Report must be processed through the Defect Reporting module of the Electronic PMS
system.
However, the vessel must immediately inform the responsible Fleet Manager/Ship Manager by email.
If necessary, a Service Request Form must be issued.

Page 7 of 15
Integrated Prime Tanker Management Inc. CHAPTER 10
Management System Prime Gas Management Inc.
Manual Revision: 05
(001) IMPROVEMENT Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

Defect reports generally do not require the issuance of Risk Assessment. Risk Assessment must be
issued with a Defect Report in the following cases only:
 The Defect Report involves Critical Equipment.
 It is specifically requested by Fleet/Ship Manager or Marine Superintendent.
 The shipboard Master or Chief Engineer judges that there are risks involved with the subject
defect that require the processing of Risk Assessment.

5. Deficiencies raised by Third Parties


When a vessel passes a Third Party Inspection (PSC, USCG, Flag, P&I, Vetting), the Master must, if
possible, notify the Office when the Inspection is in progress.
When the inspection is completed, the Master must immediately send the Inspection Report by
e-mail attachment to the Office.
A “Root Cause Analysis” (Form TEMP 16) must always be sent attached to the Inspection Report.
In case of a detention or a very important finding, the Master must inform the Office immediately, by
phone and later in writing.

REFERENCES
ISM Code § 9: “Reports and Analysis of Non-conformities, Accidents, Incidents and Hazardous Occurrences’

All Personnel Ashore and onboard can initiate a Preventive Action, which will be documented and
must be evaluated and accepted by the DPA and/or the responsible Management Representative.
Preventive actions are steps that are taken to remove and eliminate the causes of potential non-
conformities or potential situations that are undesirable.
The Preventive action is designed to prevent the occurrence of non-conformities or situations that do
not yet exist.

Corrective actions prevent recurrence : ( the problem has already occurred )


Preventive actions prevent occurrence : ( no problem has yet occurred )
Both types of actions are intended to prevent non-conformities.

In general, the preventive action can be thought of as a Risk Assessment.

The Company undertakes preventive action to eliminate the causes of potential non-conformities
in order to prevent their occurrence.
Preventive actions are appropriate to the effects of the potential problems.

The Company has adopted a “Continuous Improvement” philosophy throughout the entire
organization.
All Company personnel (Shore based and Shipboard) are encouraged to come forward with ideas for
improving processes, systems, quality, efficiency and working environment.
Suggestions for improvement apply to all Company’s Activities that affect services rendered to all
interested parties in terms of services, quality and cost.

1. Identifying Improvement Needs


The areas which need improvement are identified by measuring the Objectives versus the final
results.
In identifying improvement needs, the factors which must be considered are, but not limited to, the
following:
 Internal and External Audit results.
 Vetting /CDI Inspection results.
 PSC/USCG/ FLAG/ P&I Audit results.
 Accidents / Pollution Incidents / Near Misses.
 Non Conformities common to a number of Vessels or Office Departments.
 Complaints from Customers and new Customer Needs
 Suppliers/ Sub-Contractors Performance.
 Determination of the causes of Non-Conformities.
 Training Results.
 Company Employee Responsibilities and Authorities.
 Major Repair rates of Shipboard Systems and Equipment, compared to Industry trends.
 Engine and Equipment breakdown with common root-cause on a number of vessels.
 Ship’s performance elements (fuel oil consumption, consumables, wages, repair costs, EPIs,
EnPIs, Emission controls).
 Company Environmental Performance compared to Industry trends (benchmarking).
 Inventories.
 Industry practices and trends
 Market changes, and increased competition.
 Technology changes.
 Any changes in the applicable legislation.
 Social conditions.
 Risk assessment changes.
 New standards (as applicable).
All above factors may indicate areas where an improvement in the IMS or in purchased material or
services may be necessary.

For example:
 Excessive ROB quantities of spares/ stores in Inventory Lists, may indicate that the Purchasing
policy of the Vessel and the Purchasing Department must be improved.
 Continuous breakdown of machinery and equipment caused by the same problem on a number of
vessels, may indicate that the e.g. the Lub-Oil supply is not of good quality (from a particular
Supplier).
 Duplication of work identified, may indicate that Responsibilities must be re-evaluated.

Page 13 of 15
Integrated Prime Tanker Management Inc. CHAPTER 10
Management System Prime Gas Management Inc.
Manual Revision: 05
(001) IMPROVEMENT Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

 Deficiencies raised during Third Party Inspections, common to a number of vessels may indicate
that Checklists must be improved to include such checks or the PMS has to be updated with such
checks, or that training must be conducted.
 Non Conformities raised during Internal and External Audits, common to a number of vessels
may indicate that IMS Procedures and Forms must be improved or that training must be
conducted.
 A comparison of the Company Inspections (e.g. Pre-vetting) with Third Party Inspection
(Vetting) on the same period and vessel with a considerable differentiation of findings, may
indicate that the Company’s Inspection procedures must be improved.
 Frequent crew illness cases e.g heart attacks, may be an indication of inadequate pre-joining
Medical Tests.
 Health disorders onboard may indicate that the ship’s menus need to be improved to become
healthier.

2. Suggestions for Improvement


The Company has established procedures which must be followed by Company Personnel when they
wish to make suggestions for improvement.

 Shipboard Personnel:
 Shipboard Personnel, may submit their suggestions:
o through the Master’s Review Procedure by using the relevant Form ( SF/SAQ/403) or
o directly report to the Office at emergency@prime-marine.net any Best Practices or Safety
ideas / proposals.
 Office Personnel: Office Personnel may submit their suggestions by:
o submitting the SF/SAQ/404- ISM Amendment Proposal
o presenting their proposal during the Management Review Meeting ( see paragraph below)
o presenting their proposal during the Weekly operational meetings

The processing of the above mentioned Forms for Master’s Reviews and Amendment Proposals is
the responsibility of the S&Q Department and is approved by the relevant Department Manager and
the DPA or the responsible Management Representative.
The DPA is authorized by the Chief Operating Officer (COO) to approve changes for improvement
on their behalf.

3. Management Review
In addition, Office Department employees have the opportunity to submit their proposals for
improvement, during the Management Review meetings, which are held quarterly, as a minimum.
During the Management Review Meetings, Company Policies, Objectives and plans must be re-
evaluated, and amended if necessary.
Processes, suppliers, resources must be reviewed and re-considered.
During the Management Review Meetings, results and progress reports must be discussed.
Results must be tabulated to facilitate analysis and to identify trends and common problems.
The outputs from management review could determine if there are needs or opportunities that must
be addressed as part of continual improvement.

Integrated Prime Tanker Management Inc. CHAPTER 10
Management System Prime Gas Management Inc.
Manual Revision: 05
(001) IMPROVEMENT Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

Managers must ensure that they identify the true Root Cause and any potential weaknesses in the
Company’s system. Suggested improvements, if accepted during the Management Review Meeting
must be fed-back into the Company’s continuous-improvement process.
Any progress which is identified to be less than planned, must result in a re-alignment of
performance with targets and objectives.

Benchmarking must be an integral part of the improvement process, and must be used to further
improve the IMS.
The Technical Managers Association, Intertanko, BIMCO, HELMEPA and other organizations are
referred to, in order to compare Company standards and practices with Industry Standard levels.

During the Management Review Meetings, the results of the previous Management Review Meetings
are analyzed and decisions are taken related to:
 Improvement of the effectiveness of the QMS and its processes.
 Improvement of product related to customer requirements.
 Resource needs.

The findings, conclusions and decision must be recorded and plans for action and follow-up must be
documented.
Responsibilities must be allocated to Company personnel in order to eliminate the causes of non-
conformities in order to prevent their re-occurrence.
Risk assessment techniques must be applied in order to identify potential Non Conformities, and
appropriate preventive actions must be taken.
Periodically, the DPA or the responsible Management Representative are responsible to follow-up
and ensure the implementation of the corrective action and decisions which were agreed and accepted
during the Management Review Meetings.

5.3.1.1 Management Agreement


When a new vessel joins the Company Fleet, and the Owning Company is different than the Managing
Company, then an Official Document is issued i.e. the “Management Agreement”.
Through this "Management Agreement", the Owning Company authorizes the Managing Company to
manage its vessels, under the terms and conditions which are stated there-in.

5.3.1.2 Declaration of Company


As soon as the “Management Agreement” is signed by both the Owning Company and the Managing
Company, it is the duty of the Legal Department to notify the Vessel’s Flag Administration.
This is processed by filling-in the relevant forms provided by the Flag Administration.
(e.g. for the Administration of Marshall Islands- Form MI-297A).
Copies of the Management Agreement and the Declaration of Company are held by:
 Legal Department
 S&Q Department
 Vessel, in Master’s File

6.1 ACTIONS TO ADDRESS RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES

REFERENCES

ISO 45001:2018 § 6.1-"Actions to address risks and opportunities"
ISO 50001:2018 § 6.1-"Actions to address risks and opportunities”
6.1.1 RISK-BASED THINKING - GENERAL
The referenced International Standards specify the requirement for the Company to understand its
context and determine Risks, as a basis for planning.
“Risk-based Thinking” is used to:
 Plan and implement the processes.
 Comply with obligations and other issues and requirements, and
 Assist in determining the extent of “Documented Information”.
Actions taken to address risks can include:
 avoiding the risk
 taking the risk in order to pursue an opportunity
 eliminating the risk source
 changing the likelihood (or consequence if possible)
 sharing the risk
 retaining the risk by informed decision
Risk is the effect of uncertainty, however, any such uncertainty can have positive or negative results.
Opportunities can arise from a situation favorable to achieve an intended result.
Actions to address opportunities can also include consideration of associated risks.
Opportunities can lead to the adoption of new practices, launching of new products or services, opening
new markets, addressing new Customers, building partnerships, using new technology etc.
A positive deviation arising from a risk can provide an opportunity, but not all positive effects of risk
result in opportunities.
When determining the risks and opportunities for Occupational Health and Safety matters of the
Integrated Management System, the Company takes into consideration the hazards, the occupational
health and safety risks and opportunities and legal and other requirements.
When planning for the IMS, the Company has considered the following external and internal factors:
 The government regulations and changes in the law.
 The economic shifts in the Company’s market.
 The Company’s competition, events that may affect corporate image.
 And changes in Technology.
and has considered:
 Who the Interested Parties might be.
 What their relevant interests might be.
and has determined the Risks and Opportunities that need to be addressed to:
 Give assurance that the Integrated Management System achieves its intended result(s).

Page 2 of 33
Integrated Prime Tanker Management Inc. CHAPTER 06
Management System Prime Gas Management Inc.
Manual Revision: 05
(001) PLANNING Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

 Enhance desirable effects.


 Prevent, or reduce, undesired effects.
 Achieve continual improvement.
 Evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.
The Company determines, and where necessary, takes action to address any risks or opportunities
that can affect energy performance.
By identifying risks and opportunities when planning the Integrated Management System, the
Company is able to anticipate potential scenarios and consequences, so that undesired effects can be
addressed before they occur.
Similarly, favourable considerations or circumstances that could offer potential advantages or
beneficial outcomes can be identified and pursued.
This process can be regarded as complementary to the Energy Review, in order to control and
improve the energy performance.
The Company has decided to utilize the “SWOT” Analysis (Strengths–Weaknesses-Opportunities and
Threats).
The SWOT analysis is the key to set up a stable Organization.
An analysis of such kind is of great use. It helps in understanding the aims, goals, and ambitions of the
Company.
At the same time, it presents a clear image of the “Pros” and “Cons” related to the Company’s activities.
Based on that approach, the Company can capitalize on advantages and/or avoid the disadvantages.

Identifying, Analysing, Evaluating and Controlling the Risk:

1 Establish the context What activities are we talking about?

2 Identify the Risks What might affect the outcome?

3 Analyze the risks Prioritize the risk

4 Evaluate the Risks Can we live with this risk?

Control/Treat the Risks Actually implement what you decided


5
affectively must be done to control the risk

6 Review (annually) Is it working?

Within the scope of the Integrated Management System, the Company also determines potential
Emergency Situations (also involving Risk), including those that can have an Environmental Impact
and Hazard Identification and Assessment of Risk and Opportunities for Occupational Health and
Safety matters.

and safety matters is further analyzed in the "Occupational Health and Safety Management Planning"
of this Chapter.

Integrated Internal Audits – Office


One of the main objectives of the Company is to establish and implement appropriate measurements
and feedback processes to focus on and drive continuous improvement.
The Company has established procedures to carry out Internal Audits in order to verify whether the
occupational health, safety, quality, pollution prevention, energy efficiency and Information Security
activities comply with the IMS, and to ensure the efficient implementation of the IMS by both
Shipboard and Shore-based personnel.
Detailed procedures for planning, monitoring and conducting the Audits, as well as for the follow-up
of corrective actions are found in IMS Procedures Manual. (PRO (002) –PROC 10-“Internal Audits”.

During Integrated Internal Audits, the requirements of the ISM Code, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO
27001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001, MLC 2006 and ISPS Code are verified, reviewed and evaluated.

Manual Revision: 04
(001) PERFORMANCE EVALUATION Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

Internal Audit Schedules

The Internal Audits are scheduled annually, in the month of January of each year.

The S&Q Department is responsible to draw the Audit schedules, for both Internal and External Audits
for the Office and the vessels.
The schedules are drawn by the use of two relevant forms i.e:
 OFF/SAQ/413-“Audit Schedule-Office”
 OFF/SAQ/414-“Audit Schedule-Vessel”
The DPA and the Management Representative are responsible to review and approve the Audit
schedules, and during Operational Meeting, held at the beginning of each year (January).

Audit General Principles


The basic principles of Internal Audits are:
 The Audit is a tool to assess and is not designed to allocate blame.
 The results are fed back into the IMS for corrective action and the experience is distributed
throughout the Company.
 The Audits are conducted by personnel, who at the time of the Audit are independent of the area
being audited.

Internal Audit Documented Procedure


The Company has issued detailed procedures for conducting Internal Audits.

Frequency of Internal Audits


As a minimum, all the Office Departments and the vessels must be audited annually, in a period not
greater than twelve (12) months from the previous audit (provided that the audits are conducted at
safe ports).
As per the new ISM Code, in exceptional circumstances, this interval may be exceeded by not more
than three (3) months, following approval by the Flag Administration.
Scope of Internal Audits
The purpose and scope of an Internal Audit may be defined separately for each Office Department or
vessel during partial audits.
However, the annual Internal Audits must always cover all the activities of the Department or vessel.
The S&Q Department has issued Audit Checklists for this purpose.
These are periodically reviewed to ensure that all the activities and all new IMS procedures have been
included and will be audited.
The Audit Checklists include Safety, Health, Quality, Environmental, Energy Efficiency and
Information Security issues to be audited.
The results of the audits and reviews are brought to the attention of the Office and/or Shipboard
Departments having responsibility in the area involved. Corrective actions are taken on deficiencies
found.
The results of the Internal and External Audits are officially discussed in the Management Review
Meetings, demonstrating Top Management commitment and involvement.

(001) PERFORMANCE EVALUATION Eff. Date: 30/11/2021

Internal Audits
Internal Audits are scheduled and conducted by the Company.
It is the Master’s responsibility to prepare his vessel and crew for the Audit.
Additionally, it is the Master’s responsibility to ensure that the Non-Conformities raised during the
Internal Audits are dealt with, appropriate corrective action is taken and the results are reported to the
Company as per relevant procedures.
Furthermore, it is the Master’s responsibility to ensure that the corrective actions which were taken for
the close-out of Non-Conformities of ISM/ISPS Audits, remain in force and are continuously and
effectively implemented.

Reporting of Non-Conformities and Corrective Actions


The Company has issued procedures for the reporting of Deficiencies and Corrective Actions. All Non-
Conformities raised during Internal Audits are documented, by the use of IMS Forms.

Navigational Audits are included in the ISM Internal Audits.


The relevant Checklists include separate sections for the Audit of the Navigational Procedures.

The S&Q Department is responsible to review and follow-up the close-out of the Non- Conformities
and to keep relevant records.
Detailed procedures for the reporting of Non-Conformities, the Corrective actions taken and the records
kept are found in IMS Procedures Manual.

Distribution of Experience resulting from Internal Audits


Internal Audit results and experiences are distributed throughout the Company.
As a minimum, this is done Quarterly, through the issuance of relevant official Company Circular,
which includes the S&Q Department presentation, with the results of the Internal and External Audits.
In cases, where the same Non-Conformities have been identified on more than one department or vessel
(indicating a trend) and depending on the seriousness of the findings, Circulars or Circular messages
may be sent out more frequently.

Vessel Visit Report


As a rule, the vessels must be visited as a minimum twice per year.
Each vessel must be visited, once by a Technical Superintendent (Fleet Manager, Ship Manager,
Assistant Superintendent, Technical / Deputy Technical Manager) and once by a Marine & Vetting
Superintendent.
Additionally, at least once per year, one Technical Superintendent and one Marine Superintendent must
sail with the vessel.
(A Ship Attendance is considered a “sailing visit” when it has a duration of at least 72 hours)
The routine vessel visit may be combined with other attendances i.e. Vetting Inspections, Internal or
External Audits, attendance during Dry Docking.
They must observe and advise the Company of any required safety improvements and corrective

9.3.1 GENERAL

The Company has a clear procedure for holding Management Review Meetings.
The Company’s Integrated Management System, is reviewed to ensure its continuing suitability,
adequacy and effectiveness.
The review includes assessing Risks, Opportunities for improvement and the need for changes to the
integrated management system, including the policies, procedures and objectives.

Management Reviews are planned to be carried out quarterly.

Unscheduled management reviews may be carried out (i.e. to discuss specific matters: Incidents, New
Regulations etc), as necessary.
Records of management reviews are maintained.
Management Review Meetings are being held, chaired by Top Management (Chief Operating Officer
(COO)) and monitored by the DPA, the Management Representatives and the S&Q Department.
All Department Managers and their Deputies must participate.
However, the Management Review Meetings are “open” and all Office Staff, as well as Shipboard staff
which happen to be in Office for familiarization or Briefing/Debriefing are encouraged to attend.
The Management Review follows a standard “Agenda” which gives consideration to the suitability and
effectiveness of the Integrated Management System in satisfying the ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001,
ISO 45001, ISO 50001 and ISM Code requirements.
