The Challenge: Paper Safety vs. Real Safety
Too often, safety training becomes a box-ticking exercise. Crews attend briefings, review manuals, and sign forms—but when faced with real emergencies, human error, hesitation, and poor coordination remain the leading causes of incidents at sea. Each unexpected event means downtime, potential claims, and increased scrutiny from charterers and regulators.
With the introduction of SIRE 2.0, every crew member—not just officers—must actively demonstrate safety competence during vetting inspections. Chapter 5: Safety is no longer reserved for manuals; it must be understood and applied by each seafarer onboard. This shift requires practical, scenario-based training that builds real confidence and awareness across the entire crew.
