Green Jakobsen

Give your seafarers the ability to manage unique situations

In Green-Jakobsen we believe that the people in a company is a strong resource, the potential to improve the performance of the company in a safe and proactive manner. In our focus on developing the human element we must move away from the thinking that people are the source of error, and instead become better at making them the potential for development and improvement.

Safety Delta is a way to start the change and hold on to a continuous focus on improving safety performance and behaviour. Besides, it makes it possible for you to meet many of the requirements in the coming TMSA 3 in one solution.

The fact that you can only truly assess, understand and manage a situation when you actively participate is important for the way that we support our seafarers. Proactive behaviour involves acting in advance of a future situation, rather than just reacting. It means taking control and making things happen rather than just adjusting to a situation or waiting for something to happen – or merely following procedures.

Don’t forget that we can give you an executive, no-obligation presentation of Safety Delta – contact Erik Green (e.green@green-jakobsen.com) for making arrangements.

In the meantime you can get an overall introduction to Safety Delta in the video below. Follow seafarer John’s “voyage”:

How it works: The 3-phased cycle - Diagnosis, Dialogue and Development

This makes a difference not only for safety – it will make a difference in the overall performance – I believe it will. So, in six months’ time it will relieve my job as a vessel manager because we have empowered the crew and they can take responsibility themselves.

Diagnosis - an auto-generated safety condition report

The crew provides anonymous input to the Crew Safety Diagnosis report via a survey.

The Crew Safety Diagnosis report:

Is auto-generated and provides the crew with an instant mirror of the safety performance as it is perceived by the crew

Offers a written feedback allowing the crew to work proactively on improvements

Analyses 6 safety performance areas and evaluates 5 critical safety behaviours

Dialogue - put safety on the agenda and create an open atmosphere

The only persons who truly experience the safety performance on board are the crew members involved in the daily tasks. They are also the persons to make corrections or changes, if needed. The best dialogue will happen in an open atmosphere.

The dialogue:

Helps crew to discuss what to stop doing, start doing or what to do more of

Helps ensure a competent dialogue resulting in the ability to decide upon potential corrective actions

Helps officers develop an open and assertive safety culture among all crew members

Development - empower seafarers to build a stronger safety culture, step by step

The Crew Safety Diagnosis report and the structured dialogue that takes place afterwards help identify focus areas that need improvement or development.

Safety Delta provides a platform called Safety Delta Learning Library. It provides a wide choice of learning and development tools, best practice methods and ideas to:

Support the onboard crew to manage the identified learning and improvement needs

Make ready-to-use training modules available, including instructor guidelines and ideas for practical exercises

Engage in safety games challenging crew's knowledge and understanding

Expand safety competencies of the seafarers to become stronger safety culture carriers

Safey Delta is a natural progression if you are running safety campaigns. It follows through with the Safety I's, the board game, etc. It is a huge strength that it builds on what we have already done.

It’s good because I can see that we need to do the dialogue, it is boosting the morale of crew and Junior officers. And it builds up the confidence of the crew.
