The quality and safety of a ship management operating indicators, fundamental condition depends on the crew. Of course, the skills of the crew, the quality is first, the reasonable arrangement of the daily rest period is essential.
Now we tend to have such a consensus, on board security incidents, not the crew violation is accountability, or business the quality is not hard. The findings of the investigation of the cause of the accident, is also often true. These conclusions is the objective, but we are not overlooked a potential factor, that is, the physical condition of the parties themselves? In my opinion, the physical factors of the crew in fact is a serious hazard to affect the safety of the ship production, but often overlooked here is the degree of physical fatigue. Sailing is a hard job, "hard" duplicitous meaning of the word, did the crew can experience, and boring, the storm has almost become synonymous with seafaring, but fatigue is often no one would have thought. The crew is concerned, in addition to the work and the environment caused by physical exertion brings fatigue, fatigue due to sleep problems brings the impact is particularly severe. The Chinese Medical Association of Psychiatry of a million people sleep survey: over 40% of the people "sleep well", "sleep well" bring more than half during the day, lack of energy, dozing, 27.7 percent of people in a bad mood, 38.9% of daytime activity limitation. Sleep on the terrestrial environment is undoubtedly much better than on board. Crew sleep by the ship shake jet lag, irregular frequent in and out of port, ship noise factors, quality of sleep is self-evident, I think if a similar survey among the crew, that will not be 40% of "sleep sleep" the ability to turn a bounded operator.
3, April 2010, the Chinese crew manipulated by "God" Collier waters in eastern Queensland Tai Kai Poer Island, 70 kilometers in the evening and ran aground. The Queensland government said in a statement, the preliminary investigation found that the vessel has a little oil, grease floating in the hull around the sea, and serious pollution of the Great Barrier Reef. The official organization gives to the conclusion, the reason to cause this accident is the crew to cut corners when crew fatigue induction, the pilot did not do a very good duty Outlook. The crew work schedule is all false, therefore, after the berthing of ships in Australia, the PSC specifically on the strict inspection by the Attorney and detained some of the ship, this time to the shipping industry a serious negative impact.
As driving to the safe navigation of ships on duty, troubled by sleep problems even worse. On the bridge, we can often hear the complaints could not sleep, occasionally can hear the "sleep well and comfortable," laments share of satisfaction really causes people to ponder the crew to be a good sleep is not easy! The driver on duty reasons, rest time generally divided into two sections to calculate the plus voyage to encounter the storm caused the ship rocking, could not sleep. Sometimes six or seven hours of sleep time is also divided into two sleeping frequently dock, so the quality of sleep can be imagined. Again and again for some time down the side effects of the physical condition is obvious. Studies have shown that lack of sleep will be tiring, lethargy, irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating and poor memory, reduced ability to make mechanical operation, to extend the reaction time of stimulation, sleep deprivation can also cause the feeling of change, change, such as vision, visual hallucinations, a reduced ability of decision making related to the flexibility of creative thinking, prediction and coherent language brain functions are impaired, and emotionally out of control, all of these consequences, we ship safety in production, especially the safety of navigation the enemy, saying it is a serious hazard to the safety of not too much!
There is heavy work tasks, especially the cabin staff. Did the crew know the ship at sea suspended is very dangerous, so repair is essential, the repair process is often continuous work, rest periods basically there is no guarantee that if the slightest mistake, it will endanger their personal safety and machine damage accidents. So which requires the ship leadership ahead of a reasonable arrangements for the rest of the crew time, preventive work to do in front, but also to provide protection for the safety of navigation. An energetic, very few personal safety and engine damage accident occurs, this security risk is often in our work and life are forgotten and ignored. I believe that with the progress of the times, the hidden danger of safety incidents, safety in production to the national economy and the topic of this relationship from a higher, deeper level, a fundamental solution to a variety of causes for the shipping industry to create more wealth.
