Abstract

In view of the current market landscape, shipping and maritime support companies are increasingly seeking excellence through a strict policy of health, environment, quality and safety. This monograph focuses on the issue of safety, presenting concepts, internal policies, documents and attitudes that must be taken by employers and employees to take the maritime company to the ideal goal of zero accident. Currently, there is a lot of talk about the concept of "selling security", that is, in addition to the usual services provided, companies in their portfolio expose their respective concerns about the safety of vessels, cargoes and crews. The Internal Commission for the Prevention of Accidents (CIPA) is an extremely important instrument. She is a forerunner of security and her members, heralds, are the guiders who carry out all the work of safety multiplication on board. For example, the awareness and training of crew members to properly use their respective Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in the execution of their duties on board is directly linked to CIPA, as well as conducting safety campaigns. In order to enrich this work, research was done on web sites, books, monographs, articles and documents. To illustrate and facilitate the understanding of the theme, the expositive approach was adopted using graphs, images and tables.
