Office Staff Safety Culture

The value we provide

All shipping and offshore companies are compelled to be very safety conscious.  To assess the actual safety performance, the Lost Time Accident Frequency (LTAF) is often the instrument. The LTAF  chart is a tool for identifying both positive and negative trends in company safety performance and is a means for taking preventive action in case of negative trends.

However, even one accident is an accident too many.  In the constant strive for achieving an accident free work place it is therefore important to improve the overall safety culture ensuring proactive safety management.

In order to be able to discuss and develop safety culture it is important to understand the safety roles and responsibilities of every staff member. Safety is for all employees. The employees at the head office must constantly remind themselves of their role as safety culture front figure.

Any employee's perception of safety when communicating and interacting with the vessels has a large impact on the company safety culture.

What we do

Therefore, it is important to guide all staff and management to become good safety managers. How to play an active role and to facilitate the development and maintenance of a strong safety culture are elements in Green-Jakobsen's approach.

Through e-learning, workshops and seminars Green-Jakobsen can provide the office staff with an understanding of:

  • Company vision and values related to Safety;
  • Company safety terminology, legislation
    and organisation;
  • Safety management tools, systems
    and procedures;
  • Their role and responsibilities as
    safety managers;
  • When and where to apply the relevant
    safety tools.

How we do it

Training will focus on three areas:

1) Overall vision and philosophy related
    to Safety
2) Procedures, systems and tools to support 
    safe working conditions
3) Execution of safety management and
    coordination with on board staff 

We apply innovative and creative processes and concepts and offer:
