The shipping industry is doing much progress in terms of its efforts toward people’s well-being, but more needs to be done to ensure a more holistic approach to the wellness of people onboard and onshore, a new poll by SAFETY4SEA showed.

SAFETY4SA is pleased to announce a new survey, scheduled to run within Q1 & Q2 of 2023 that aims to shed light on key trends of wellbeing at sea. The preliminary results will be released on an ongoing basis and final reports later within 2023.

SAFETY4SEA “Shipping ESG500 Survey” sets out an index illustrating the progress that ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) has made so far within the maritime industry, revealing that industry’s ESG performance stands at 49.1%. With slow but steady steps, the figure shows that the industry is on the right track for embracing ESG strategies.

Although the Environmental related issues seem to be well cared by shipping organizations to successfully achieve the green transition; Society and Governance need to be appropriately integrated into the industry’s policies. However, the industry is not giving much priority to the Governance parameter, giving ground mainly to the “E” and “S” of ESG, the SAFETY4SEA ESG Climate Survey revealed.

SAFETY4SEA is pleased to announce the SAFETY4SEA ESG Climate Survey,  with the aim to examine factors around industry’s perception about the ESG challenges and provide a picture of how shipping responds to the new ESG trends and challenging requirements, by shaping their agenda.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, seafarers work and live under challenging conditions onboard. Among others, this situation revealed that we should never loose focus of wellbeing and take anything for granted; in that respect, feedback is vital. Crew welfare is a top issue and latest SAFETY4SEA survey calls maritime industry stakeholders to consider it as a key priority in order to turn the tide.
