Marine SMS
Issue:
TC does not always provide effective oversight of
marine transportation companies transitioning to
safety management systems, while some
companies are not even required to have one.
Solution:
TC should require all commercial vessels to have
SMS, and all SMS should be certified and audited.
7
Loss of Life on Fishing Vessels
Issue:
The number of accidents involving loss of life on
fishing vessels remains too high.
Solution:
Concerted and coordinated action is required by
leaders in the fishing community to implement a
safety culture approach to fishing operations,
recognizing the interaction of safety deficiencies.
