COMPLAINT PROCEDURE Rev.No: 1e
Appr. By: IVE
STOLT-NIELSEN This form shows an extract of the complaint procedure as contained in SMM 4.7

Each seafarer is allowed to file an official complaint is he / she feels the need to do so regardless of the nature of the complaint. Reasons to
complain include, but are not limited to:
- breaches to seafarers rights
- breaches to any international convention (including the Maritime Labour Convention)
- jeopardizing the safety of the vessel
- breaches to the wellbeing or welfare of a seafarer
- any other case where a seafarer feels the need to lodge a complaint

The proper way to have any issue resolved is to address it with the department head, then the master and followed by Sea personnel
department if the complaint is not resolved at the lower levels. In those cases where outcome of the complaint is deemed to be
unsatisfactory, he / she may seek advise or file his / her complaint to the company ombudsman.
The person fulfilling this role should be independent of the other main activities of ship management-such as those within the Sea Personnel
and Fleet departments. The person must have full power to make inquiries, have access to top management, and must exercise an
appropriate degree of confidentiality. It is for these reasons the General Manager of Marine and Safety has been appointed to the
Ombudsman position. Contact details for the Ombudsman are equal to those of the DPA and are posted on various public locations
onboard.
The seafarer is allowed to be accompanied or represented at any time if he / she chooses to do so. The seafarer is absolutely free in his / her
decision on who is chosen to accompany or represent them. The company does not allow victimization of anyone lodging a complaint.
Suspicion of victimization is taken extremely serious and may result in disciplinary actions to the suspect.
The Ombudsman may refuse to investigate when:
- the person has made no effort to resolve the complaint with the department or person(s) concerned. Often complaints can be resolved by
this means without the Ombudsman becoming involved
- the person making the complaint has had knowledge of the matter being complained about for more than six months
- the complaint is considered to be trivial, frivolous, vexatious or not made in good faith
- the person is considered to have insufficient personal interest in the complaint.
When you have a complaint or concern, the Ombudsman will try to guide you to some form of resolution. Although he cannot promise the
outcome for which you are hoping, he does guarantee that he will listen, be fair, be confidential, and be responsive to your needs. You will
also get a complete explanation as to why and how the resolution achieved came about.
The role of Ombudsman has been established to help the company serve you better – so do take advantage of this facility when you feel it
necessary.
In case a seafarer does not wish to address his complaint at the ombudsman, he / she is entitled to bring this complaint directly under the
attention of the flag state or at the competent authority in his / her country of residence. The contact details of the flag state are displayed
onboard.

The Seafarer, as stated on the contract attached to this sheet, has declared that the country as stated below is his country of Domicile.
