Safety issue
The safety management system on board Pasha Bulker did
not provide the master with specific guidance about safely putting
to sea in adverse weather. Neither the masters standing orders nor
the passage plan form prescribed in the safety management system
contained any guidance with regard to bridge resource or team
management or encouraged its use.
Safety Recommendation
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau recommends that Fukujin
Kisen Company take action to address this safety issue.
