國際船長協會(IFSMA)於今晨發布重磅消息,籲請各船船長為遵守各項國際公約(SOLAS,MLO,MARPOL,ISM,SMS….)發函給船旗國及公司主管(DPA): 在船員遣返,醫療救護,船員情緒,等影響安全之問題未獲解決之前, 船舶將於到達第一港口之後,不在開航!!!Dear Shipmaster, NOTICE TO ALL SHIPMASTERS We, the members of the IFSMA Executive Council and the IFSMA Secretariat do hope that this letter finds you, your crews and all your families safe and well wherever you are. This global COVID-19 pandemic has had an enormous impact on all the maritime industry, but it is you the seafarer who must not be forgotten. We hope you are all aware of the work that the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) together with IFSMA and other key non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) are putting in on your behalf to enable crew changes to take place. The International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) and the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF), supported by its affiliated unions, have been working closely with IFSMA to put pressure on Governments to start taking measures to ensure this happens to keep you, the seafarers, safe and for ships to trade safely around the world. To date, a relatively small number of steps have been taken by relatively few nations, since most are only concentrating on their internal domestic struggles against the global COVID-19 pandemic and are sometimes seemingly oblivious to your plight at sea. Since the pandemic was declared by WHO in February, many Governments and International Organisations rightly declared Force Majeure for keeping you at sea. IFSMA wishes to reiterate that it now considers this no longer appropriate. Shipmasters, their crews and all in authority in the Shipping Industry remain subject to normal contractual conditions in accordance with the ILO’s Maritime Labour Convention and all IMO Codes, Conventions, Rules and Regulations. Easing of Restrictions NOT being Extended Shipmasters share the responsibility of their ship owners and ship operator employers for the safety and welfare of their crew and for the protection of the marine environment and it is for this reason IFSMA writes personally to you today. The IMO has issued industry developed Crew Change Protocols for the guidance of nations. Despite many nations starting to ease lockdown restrictions, not all have been extended to facilitate crew changes; those that have been implemented have been driven by shipowners, crew managers and unions, with little help from nations. Notwithstanding that a recent small number of repatriations and crew changes are showing some signs of becoming easier, IFSMA is increasingly concerned that there is now clear potential for the wholly unwarranted criminalisation of the Shipmaster if a maritime incident takes place in which tiredness and the mental health of their officers and crew are subsequently found to have undermined the safe operation of their ship.

Your attention is also drawn to the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974 Regulation 34-1 which clearly states:- “The owner, the charterer, the company operating the ship as defined in regulation IX/1, or any other person shall not prevent or restrict the master of the ship from taking or executing any decision which, in the master’s professional judgement, is necessary for the safety of life at sea and the protection of the marine environment” ISM Code/SMS/MLC The International Safety Management (ISM) Code also states that the Company should ensure that the Safety Management System (SMS) operating on board the ship contains a clear statement emphasising the master's authority. The Company should establish in the SMS that the master has the overriding authority and the responsibility to make decisions with respect to safety and pollution prevention and to request the Company's assistance as and when may be necessary. Finally, IFSMA draws your attention to MLC Regulation 5.1.5, On-board complaints procedures. If, despite your best efforts as master, you feel the safety of your ship and crew is compromised due to lack of support from the shipowner or other factors, because: 1. Your crew is significantly beyond their contract term 2. Your crew is fatigued 3. You are short handed 4. You are concerned about the safe operation of your ship 5. You do not have sufficient PPE including sanitisers/testing (etc) 6. You do not have access to appropriate supplies including medicines 7. You cannot get access to urgent medical and urgent dental services ashore 8. Your crew is not provided free wifi/internet contact with home 9. Your crew want to go home Then: You have a duty and responsibility to report this to the shipowner (whose name and address must be stated on your seafarers’ employment agreement and the MLC Certificate carried onboard). Put the interests of your crew first. If they are not being granted their full MLC entitlements, such as: repatriation, access to medical care, entitlement to nutritious food, water and other supplies, then register their complaints with the shipowner.

You need to do this for your own protection from possible criminalisation in the event of a maritime incident, and for the safety of your crew and others. In the event that the issues you raise are not satisfactorily resolved you are entitled to refuse to sail on entry into your next port. Enclosed with this letter is a list of some of the points you might also wish to consider including in any Report/Complaint to your DPA or Administration Take care and keep safe and remember that IFSMA, the ITF and your unions stand behind you and are here to give you full support. On behalf of the IFSMA Executive Council and the IFSMA Secretariat,

年輕人的潛力,需要有被激發的機會

一般人對時下年輕人的印象,昨天在一個專業訓練的場合讓我學了一課,一群由台北海洋大學航技系到南部來接受STCW受訓的大,大二學生們,在無心理準備的情況下,於海上求生課程中登上一艘小艇後,被載到離岸約60/70公尺的深水港池中,在身著連身工作服的情況下,課程要求:跳水中並游至岸邊,攀上救生網登岸.(註:International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers，縮寫：STCW）

接著令人吃驚的一幕發生了,其中有兩位一組中女生的泳技較弱,由在旁的男同學以救生員救溺水乘客的仰漂姿勢將該位女生一路仰托游回岸邊,攀網而上,另外的一堆(約5/6人)則是以仰式躺著勾成一線齊力以手代槳,邊在寒冷的海水中取暖,邊齊聲喊著”加油”的口號鼓舞士氣,女生則列在中央安全的位置.場面煞是壯觀!

完全是一種”團隊互助”精神的體現,術科訓練能考驗出這種的結果,讓年輕學子直接感受到海水的威脅,與同心齊力之可貴,這一課,遠遠不是課堂中所能學到,所能體會的.讓我充分感到年輕人不是沒有潛力,而是沒有被激發出來的機會.

我們在職場,在生活中,是否應該換一種思維的模式:在生存安全的環境下,將年輕人的生活漸次推向險境,激發出他們求生的本能?
