In shipping every effort should be made to avoid incidents. This effort, inevitably, requires for us to learn the real reasons why incidents occur and how we can prevent them from happening again. One of the causes for most of the incidents is that previous incidents were not sufficiently analyzed, resulting in symptom fighting alone. That is why the incident investigation process has such a vital role in the overall improvement process of a mature safety management system. Apart from this, OCIMF recommends formal training in Incident investigation and analysis. This course/workshop offers a practical approach towards Incident Investigation and Analysis in the marine environment.
Aim:
This practical course (workshop) aims to provide the tools for proper incident investigation. With examples ranging from “near misses” to “catastrophic events”, we aim to examine how information useful for the improvement can be utilised in a systematic and practicable way.
Participants will be encouraged to share their own experience and have hands-on practice on sample cases.
Objectives:
To be able to apply an effective incident analysis tool for root cause analysis:
· Incident Analysis and Root Cause Identification
· Identification of the areas for management system improvements.
Contents:
· Maritime Incidents
· Why to report incidents

· Identification of root causes of Incidents
· Identification of the areas for management system improvements
Who should attend:
· Shore-based personnel involved in the establishment and continuous improvement of the Company’s Safety Security Management System.
· Senior Shipboard Management, as appropriate.
