DIGITALIZATION OF MARINE INTERNATIONAL SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR SHIP OWNERS AND OPERATORS

Abstract

A global standard for ship safety and pollution control is set by the ISM Code's international rules. Earlier this year, the Assembly passed resolution A.443 (XI), which asked governments to protect shipmasters in their duties relating to maritime safety and environmental protection. In resolution A.680 (17), the Assembly acknowledged the importance of a management organization in order to meet the needs of ship passengers while maintaining high standards of safety and environmental protection. As a rule, all risks to a company's ships, crew or environment should be assessed and appropriate safety measures should be implemented. A wide variety of terms and expressions are used in the code so that it can be understood by a wide audience. It's clear that different levels of management necessitate different levels of expertise, whether on land or at sea. A commitment from the top down is required for effective safety management. All these factors are important when it comes to protecting the environment and ensuring the safety of workers. A paperless version of the current safety management system used by most ship owners and operators is the goal of this research. Survey questionnaires were used to gather and analyze end-user feedback. It's important to know what the end user expects to get the most out of a product. In order to help the ship's operator, make informed decisions, this research was conducted. There were significant benefits for both shipowners and operators in terms of both time and paper savings as a result of the implementation of the new safety management system.
