On Tuesday 12th September during London International Shipping Week the Loss Prevention Team unveiled their new risk awareness game, 'Risk Ahoy!' to over 100 delegates from all walks of the maritime sector.
The game, which is aimed at crew, looks to highlight the everyday risks faced by seafarers in a fun and engaging way. The game has been intuitively designed to allow users to dip in and out of the action, with short, medium and long modes available. Players navigate their ship through 38 colourful levels of increasingly challenging difficulty, working their way through the various mini games, while identifying and avoiding common on board hazards.
The feedback at the event was overwhelming positive and as of Monday evening there has already been over 300 downloads of the game across both the App and Goggle Stores.
The UK P&I Club recently held the 16th in our series of Live Webinars, this time in collaboration with the Mission to Seafarers which focussed on Crew Health matters and in particular mental wellbeing.
The International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) has recently published Coronavirus (COVID-19): Roadmap for Vaccination of International Seafarers setting out procedures for all stakeholders to facilitate crew inoculation during the pandemic.
This Guidance addresses legal, liability and insurance issues that could potentially arise for shipowners from or in connection with vaccinations of crew for coronavirus (COVID-19).
