Opening address09:40 exploring current strategies and technologies for

fire protection and safety to certify passenger and ship safetyThe SOLAS Convention was totally revised in 2000 in a way that prescribes ultimate goal and fundamental requirements for fire and safety of ships. This approach has been met in recent IMO activities towards goal-based standards and been believed to accommodate innovative and rational design of ships for fire safety. Join one leader in the industry and examine:The goals and fundamentals for fire safety in ships ●

How to evaluate and accommodate innovative technologies ●

for fire safety of ships into regulatory frameworkThe future development of both regulatory framework and design of ships ●

Keynote address10:20 enhancing current standards in ships to maximise

safety and exceed expectations Safety regulations are constantly modified and updated in response to new technology and developments within the maritime industry or as a reaction to maritime incidents. Improving existing standards by implementing extra precautions to maximise ship safety is imperative. Hear from the Vice Chairman of IMO Sub-Committee Fire Protection who will share inside knowledge of the latest fire protection safety measurements in place. And join him in deliberating the large-scale pending issue on the safety to port requirements application and where this current issue lies. Examine:Demonstrations and findings for proactive and reactive safety ●

measures that are being considered and approved todayThe effectiveness of drainage systems in ro-ro spaces and how ●

to prevent the accumulation of waterThe significance of fire in balconies and what elements have ●

12:10 Using the right training techniques on a regular basis to reinvigorate ship safety and amplify the capabilities of the ship crewThere is no such thing as matching incidents, because no two occurrences are identical. Implementing quality safety precautions is the primary phase for warranting fire protection and safety in ships. These measures are incorporated to ensure safety and with the proper procedures, the two together should be enough to save lives. But without the proper training skills and right mindset, the crew will be put in the very difficult position of having to convert this theory into

implications on ship safetyLightweight materials for building new ships have proven to be of high value for improving maritime efficiency and competitiveness, however this can pose a big threat to fire safety on board the given vessels. This impartial case study discloses the ongoing project relating to lightweight construction for ships, its advantages and limitations and what is in the pipeline for overcoming the safety challenges. Outlining the LASS project, how and why this came about and how the ●

intended outcome will expand the maritime industryIdentifying lightweight components that fulfil fire safety requirements ●

11:30 Optimising health and safety for your crew members – gaining insight to the mechanics of high-end hearing protection for engine room personnelShip employees who work in engine rooms are at a particularly high risk of hearing impairment. The cause includes both the nature of the machinery and long working days. This does not only entail long-term effects for the individual but the short term risk hampers fluent communication on the work floor and is thus a very real safety hazard on ships. Join one of today’s forefront shipping groups who have equipped their employees with the right solution and have overcome safety challenges as a direct result in order to drastically reduce health risks to their employees, build trust and maximise morale.

Optimising ship security and safetyMonday 30 November 2009

Urban Lambertson, Leadership & Management Consultant, LaMbertsON CONsULtiNg

about the workshop:This masterclass deals with the key issues within ship safety today. Mr. Urban Lambertson is a survivor of the great tragedy that befell the MS Estonia. He will share not only his strategies for survival on that fatal day but how this experience has given him both the strength and insight for leadership management and instilling this quality in others. Through practical examples, a real-life case study and group sessions, this masterclass will arm you with the tools that you will need to optimise ship security whilst meeting both business and safety requirements.

going from a security plan to actual realityWhat is it that crew members actually need to do in times of crisis? And what does it actually take to get there? Lessons learned from the MS Estonia:

Illustrations and extracts from a computer-based ●

example assessment Injecting awareness of risk and security management into the ●

entire organisation to have the initial tools for action Going beyond safety plans and strategies to build a culture- ●

driven development across the board Turning safety challenges into opportunities to create a win-win ●

dimension and strengthen your business

Learning to work as a team to increase efficiency and certify passenger safety Training models need to be as close to reality as possible in terms of time, crises effects as well proximity and coordination of crew members. This way, they will be better equipped to deal with the incident at hand and work as a team. This session focuses on:

Incorporating real-time training, learning and practice to be ●

prepared to meet the incidents head-on Combining the stress factor in a training exercise to elevate ●

adrenalin and build awareness of what it actually takes to cope with the situation at hand Teaching the importance of trust – trusting yourself as well as ●

your team members with your life Meeting the challenge in a rational way and with the right ●

frame of mind Developing innovative approaches to reach passengers with ●

‘tunnel vision’ by developing a routine and increasing focus Analysing human behaviour including feelings and reactions ●

to make the most of debriefs and maximise future exercises

rescue missions through leadership managementRescue missions in ship incidents are not dependent on hierarchy but rather on the leadership of the crew as a whole entity. This session reveals how to ensure both passenger and ship safety by:

Assuming dual job functions during a ship safety occurrence ●

Building a strong culture for coordinating service, crisis ●

and security management Developing a ‘situational awareness' and a focus on the ●

right frame of mindDrilling down both routine and automatic systems process ●

building awareness and responsibility in a synchronised mannerWhat happens to the responsible organisation after a catastrophe occurs? This session deals with developing a crisis management function post-incident to rebuild the trust of stakeholders, staff and the shipping industry by assuming the proper responsibility and coordinating efforts to build awareness and support all parties involved.
