Marine accidents can occur at any time and everywhere in the world,
resulting in loss of life, property, environment and reputation of
the companies involved. Preventing accidents and establishing a
safer world without accidents is an important agenda for the
maritime industry. Since the enforcement of the International
Safety Management Code in 1998, companies have taken various kinds
of measures to prevent accidents. Unfortunately, measures have been
undertaken in a disorganized manner, and have not been effective.
Experts of risk management, the safety management system, and
accident models have each undertaken accident preventive measures
within the scope of their specific fields, but have not looked
beyond the realm of their own fields. This book discusses
systematic accident prevention by integrating multi-disciplinary
expertise based on academic research, the quality management system
which has already proved its effectiveness in other fields, and
findings of the author's research. In systematic accident
prevention, the weaknesses of a system within which accidents and
incidents have occurred are viewed by combining scientific accident
investigation data based on the International Maritime Organization
model and the accident model. The nature of every type of marine
accident, such as collisions, groundings, occupational casualties,
etc., are derived by combining the accident model and statistical
data. System weaknesses are rectified by the risk reduction method
of risk management, and the rectified performance is incorporated
in improvement in the system by the PDCA cycle, which is the core
of the Safety Management System. We can see the weakness in the
system and reduce the number of accidents and incidents while
utilizing limited resources optimally to prevent accidents and
incidents.
