Designated Person Ashore

To ensure the safe operation of each ship and to provide a link between the Company and those on board, the ISM Code states that every company, as appropriate, should designate a person or persons ashore having direct access to the highest level of management. The responsibility and authority of the designated person or persons should include monitoring the safety and pollution-prevention aspects of the operation of each ship and ensuring that adequate resources and shore-based support are applied, as required.
