Why investing in training works
It’s estimated that human error is responsible for up to 96% of all maritime accidents. That’s not including the near misses that often go unreported
A shortage of good candidates, rapid promotions, inconsistency in standards, and the need for people to constantly adapt to new technologies all contribute to a culture where mistakes are easily made – and can have catastrophic effects.
- Makes a ship safer by reducing human error – helping to save lives, prevent injuries, and avoid damage to property and the environment.
- Drives cost-efficiencies by reducing time lost to accidents, incidents or errors
- Creates a more productive ship by helping people get better at what they do and willing to embrace new technologies and responsibilities
“ Human error has long been regarded as a major cause of incidents in the shipping sector. It is estimated that between 75% to 96% of marine accidents can be attributed to human error.”
