ISM Audits

The International Safety Management (ISM) Code is a globally recognized standard developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to ensure the safe management and operation of ships and pollution prevention. The ISM Code provides a framework for establishing a safety management system (SMS) that includes policies, procedures, and practices to manage risks and ensure compliance with international safety regulations. By implementing the ISM Code, companies can enhance their safety culture, improve operational efficiency, and reduce the likelihood of accidents and environmental incidents.

 

Regular audits of a company's safety management system against the ISM Code are essential to maintaining compliance and continuous improvement. These audits help identify potential hazards, areas for improvement, and ensure that the SMS is effectively implemented and followed. Regular audits also demonstrate a company's commitment to safety and environmental protection, which can enhance its reputation and build trust with stakeholders. By proactively addressing safety issues and continuously improving their SMS, companies can minimize risks, avoid costly incidents, and ensure the safety of their crew, vessels, and the environment.
