Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to report the data analysis results from the International Health Regulations (2005) Ship Sanitation Certificates (SSCs), recorded in the European Information System (EIS). International sea trade and population movements by ships can contribute to the global spread of diseases. SSCs are issued to ensure the implementation of control measures if a public health risk exists on board. EIS designed according to the World Health Organization (WHO) “Handbook for Inspection of Ships and Issuance of SSC”. Inspection data were recorded and SSCs issued by inspectors working at European ports were analysed. From July 2011–February 2017, 107 inspectors working at 54 ports in 11 countries inspected 5579 ships. Of these, there were 29 types under 85 flags (including 19 EU Member States flags). As per IHR (2005) 10,281 Ship Sanitation Control Exception Certificates (SSCECs) and 296 Ship Sanitation Control Certificates (SSCCs) were issued, 74 extensions to existing SSCs were given, 7565 inspection findings were recorded, and 47 inspections were recorded without issuing an SSC. The most frequent inspection findings were the lack of potable water quality monitoring reports (23%). Ships aged ≥12 years (odds ratio, OR = 1.77, 95% confidence intervals, CI = 1.37–2.29) with an absence of cargo at time of inspection (OR = 3.36, 95% CI = 2.51–4.50) had a higher probability of receiving an SSCC, while ships under the EU MS flag had a lower probability of having inspection findings (OR = 0.72, 95% CI = 0.66–0.79). Risk factors to prioritise the inspections according to IHR were identified by using the EIS. A global information system, or connection of national or regional information systems and data exchange, could help to better implement SSCs using common standards and procedures.

Abstract:
This study analyses the theoretical and practical aspects relating to a special category of occupational accidents, more precisely the occupational accidents aboard ships. The International Labour Organization (I.L.O.), while aware of the importance of this topic, has issued the Maritime Labour Convection (MLC 2006) – ratified by Romania through the Law no. 214/2015 - ensuring the legal framework for maritime personnel by taking into account the special labour conditions thereof. On the internal level, a series of regulations in the Romanian law provide a legal framework in this matter. Among these, we may mention the Guide of March 19, 2018 for the safe management and health protection of seafarers aboard the ships flying the Romanian flag, a document bringing important regulations in this field. In this study we will also present the jurisprudential issues regarding the occupational accidents aboard ships which, together with the theoretical approach, will lead conclusions relating to the relevant regulations in the internal law.

Abstract:
Motor vehicle exhaust gas suicide (MVEGS) is the second most frequent method of suicide in Victoria, Australia. It is a highly lethal method of suicide with 1.5 deaths for every hospital admission. Australian regulations require all vehicles manufactured since 1998 to have a maximum carbon monoxide exhaust emission level of 2.1 g/km, reduced from the previous level of 9.6 g/km. Information surrounding all Victorian MVEGS between 1998-2002 was analyzed to determine whether suicides occurred in vehicles with the lower emission levels. Between 1998-2002, 607 suicides by this means were recorded while just 393 hospital admissions were recorded for the same period. Mean carboxyhaemoglobin levels were significantly lower in fatalities using vehicles manufactured from 1998, however suicide still occurred in these vehicles (n = 25). The extent to which the new regulations contributed to the relatively low rate of suicide in vehicles less than 5 years old compared to their frequency in the fleet remains unknown. Based on international experience and the age of the Victorian vehicle fleet, it may take well over a decade until substantial decreases in MVEGS are observed in the absence of active preventive measures.

Abstract:
Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 outbreak onboard the cruise ship Diamond Princess, both the flag State and the port State should act according to international obligations during the sailing stage, quarantine period after ships’ berthing, and the time when the quarantine period expires. However, the potential danger of the absence of a “genuine link” between the cruise shipowners and the flag State, the lack of coordination of jurisdiction in different sea areas and between different States, and also the lack of special or systematic regulations for infection prevention and control (IPC) at sea and for cruise ships increase the risk of a State’s breach of international obligations. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to improve the responsive measures in international law. This paper, after review and analysis, sheds light on various recommendations on how to improve the responsive measures in international law, including (i) strengthening of the jurisdiction of the flag State, (ii) establishment of a special international cooperation mechanism with an alliance between the WHO and the IMO, and (iii) construction of an IPC mechanism for home ports of cruise ships.

Abstract:
When Covid 19 hit Indonesia, the Government began to close shipping access. The government confirmed that the closure of the port during the Covid-19 emergency period was the authority of the Central Government in this case the Ministry of Transportation cq. Directorate General of Sea Transportation. This is stated in Circular of the Director General of Sea Transportation number Circular Letter 13 of 2020 dated March 26, 2020 concerning Limitation of Passengers on Ships, Logistics Transportation and Port Services during the Corona Virus Disease 2019 Emergency Disaster Management (Covid-19). In the circular, the port closure mechanism was set up by the Regional Government in order to prevent the spread of Corona 19. The purpose of this study was to determine the Form of Protection for ship passengers during New Normal. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research approach used in this paper is the statute approach. The statute approach is carried out by examining all laws and regulations relating to the legal issues being addressed. The research conducted is aimed more at the approach to laws and regulations associated with the protection of ship passengers in the new normal era. Data Analysis Techniques Data analysis techniques used for this study are deductive analysis methods, which are data analysis methods that begin with general postulates and certain paradigms as a base for starting conclusions. In an effort to protect ship passengers in the new normal era, the Government released special rules related to sea transportation services in the face of a period of adaptation to new or new normal habits. The rule is contained in Circular Letter 12 of 2020 concerning Guidelines for the Implementation of the Trip of People with Transportation in the Adaptation Period of New Habits Towards Productive and Safe Communities Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19). The Circular was issued following the enactment of Minister of Transportation Regulation (Permenhub) No. 41 of 2020 concerning Amendments to Permenhub Number 18 of 2020 concerning Transportation Control in the Prevention of the Distribution of Covid-19. In the operation of sea transportation during the adaptation period this new custom has been set criteria that must be met by every passenger, passenger ship operator, passenger terminal operator and Syahbandar at the port of embarkation / debarkation. Passengers must also be responsible for their health by implementing health protocols. The health protocol includes keeping a distance, wearing a mask, and washing hands as well as complying with applicable regulations. In addition, passengers are required to show tickets, boarding passes, identification along with other required documents. Specifically for passengers who come from abroad must conduct a PCR Test upon arrival at the port in the country and activate the Protect Care application on the cell phone device. Regarding the amount of passenger capacity allowed for aboard, the Ministry of Transportation emphasized that passenger capacity is adjusted to the characteristics of the ship while still using the principles of health protocol.

Abstract:
Ship recycling is gaining attention in Indonesia due to the increase in end-of-life ships and uneconomical nationally flagged ships, and is considered a prospective source of economic development and employment opportunity, and yet conceivably poses a threat to the health and safety of workers and the environment. There are international and national regulations that govern ship-recycling activities to ensure that the hazardous impacts of the industry are minimized. We investigated the disparity between current ship-breaking practices in Indonesia and the requirements of related international and national regulations, with the findings intended for use as a stepping stone to proposing a strategy to establish a green and sustainable ship-recycling industry. A benchmark study of the world’s leading ship-recycling countries was conducted, and a gap analysis was performed by comparing existing international and national regulations with current ship-breaking practices in Indonesia. We identified two types of ship-breaking practices in Indonesia: Conventional environmentally unfriendly ship-breaking method, conducted by most Indonesian ship-breaking yards, and a rather modern, more environmentally friendly method, conducted by ship-repair yards. However, neither of the practices met the requirements of the regulations, and improvements are therefore needed to make the ship-recycling industry more green and sustainable, and to gain international recognition.

Abstract:
The confined environment of a ship promotes the transmission of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) due to close contact among the population on board. The study aims to provide an overview of outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 on board of cruise, navy or cargo ships, to identify relevant outbreak management techniques, related problems and to derive recommendations for prevention. Four databases were searched. The study selection included reports about seroprevalences or clinically/laboratory confirmed infections of SARS-CoV-2 on board ships between the first of January, 2020 and the end of July, 2020. A total of 37 studies were included of whom 33 reported outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 on cruise ships (27 studies referred to the Diamond Princess). Two studies considered outbreaks on the Grand Princess, three studies informed about Nile River cruises and one study about the MS Westerdam (mention of multiple outbreaks possible in one study). Additionally, three studies reported outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 on navy vessels and one study referred to a cargo ship. Problems in handling outbreaks resulted from a high number of asymptomatic infections, transportation issues, challenges in communication or limited access to health care. Responsible operators need to implement infection control measures which should be described in outbreak management plans for ships to prevent transmission risks, including, e.g., education, testing strategies, communication lines, social distancing and hygiene regulations.

Abstract:
Abstract In the COVID-19 pandemic two particular issues have arisen in relation to borders and the law of the sea: the right of ships—particularly cruise ships—to enter port and the ongoing restrictions on seafarers aboard merchant ships. In these cases, the sovereign interests of states in preventing the spread of a dangerous virus have been pitted against the humanitarian interests of those onboard the vessels. This article first describes the humanitarian concerns created by states’ responses to the emergence of COVID-19. It then discusses the various legal principles that apply to the situation, primarily the International Health Regulations, the doctrine of distress and the Maritime Labour Convention. Finally, it considers whether any lessons can be learned from this experience to hopefully lessen humanitarian problems if another pandemic happens in the future.

Abstract:
During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, a number of international cruise ships were infected, thereby resulting in serious public health and human rights problems. Multiple difficulties were encountered in the prevention and control of the coronavirus disease onboard ships, while rule-based international cooperation in this regard appeared inefficient and ineffective. By applying interdisciplinary methodologies, including empirical research of law, policy science, and health studies, this research reviewed the legal difficulties in the prevention and control of COVID-19 on international cruise ships and sought solutions from a policy-making and strategic perspective. We found that, apart from the inherent nature of cruise ships such as crowded semi-enclosed areas, shared sanitary facilities and limited medical resources, there are also nonnegligible legal reasons affecting the effectiveness of containment measures on board. In particular, there is ambiguity and even inconsistency of relevant international norms and domestic regulations, and some of the key rules are neither mandatory nor enforceable. We conclude by suggesting that rule-based international cooperation on this issue must be strengthened with respect to information sharing and management, a more effective supervisory mechanism, clarification of key rules over jurisdiction and distributions of obligations among the port states, flag states, nationality states, and cruise ship companies.

Abstract:
Air pollutants emitted by ships are one of the major causes of global environmental and human health problems, especially for sulfur oxides (SO2). In this study, a mini-sniffing sensor was mounted on the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to monitor the concentration relationship between CO2 and SO2 in the exhaust gas of sailing ships, then the sulfur content of the ship’s fuel oil was estimated to evaluate the compliance of the fuel sulfur content (FSC) with IMO regulations. In the experiment, the measurement results of the exhaust gas of sailing ships in the Pearl River Delta were presented, the data set from February to April 2022 was provided, and 445 ships were comprehensively analyzed from the perspectives of ship length and ship type. From the experimental results, considering the error of the sensor, the compliance rate of the FSC of sailing ships entering and leaving the Pearl River reached 93.7%. To some extent, the current situation for meeting the 0.5% (m/m) limit is basically optimistic. The results represent the effectiveness of DECA policy implementation. This paper demonstrates the effectiveness and reliability of the UAV monitoring method in monitoring emissions from ships, and in more effectively monitoring the impact of shipping on air quality. Furthermore, an accurate and non-contact monitoring method is proposed, which can allow law enforcement officers to judge in advance whether the ships sailing is suspected of illegally using high-sulfur fuels. It can improve the efficiency of law enforcement and reduce the cost of supervision.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis addresses the question of why work stress prevention has not been adopted systemically in organisations, despite some research findings that it is effective, that it has been mandated by legislative regulations and that it has the potential for significant cost savings. Work stress is recognised as an increasing and global problem in terms of negative economic, health and social outcomes. Its significant costs related to work injury compensation have resulted in growing pressure from governmental health and safety jurisdictions for organisations to manage and prevent stress through systemic risk management approaches.

Abstract:
The safety and health of merchant seafarers is of grave concern. With the ongoing global pandemic, the weaknesses in the governance structure to protect the safety and health of seafarers have been further exposed. Safety and health on ships is governed by two international instruments, the International Safety Management Code (ISM) and the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC). Yet, the maritime industry is challenged with how to effectively manage safe and healthy working conditions in the global merchant fleet. Regulations in and of themselves have been found to be inadequate. Other considerations are important such as representative participation, which has been neglected as a viable mechanism in the maritime safety and health regulatory regime. This chapter foregrounds representative participation as necessary for effective safety and health management on ships. It argues that along with enabling regulations and other supports for its effective implementation and practice, representative participation might help to address the challenges in safety and health management on ships.

Abstract:
Nowadays an increasing popularity of alternative designs can be observed challenging the IMO Regulations of SOLAS (International Convention for the Safety Of Life At Sea). Examples are passenger ships with larger main vertical zones, novel types of survival crafts and new materials. This desire for innovative solutions combined with the society’s need for increasingly safer transport is expected to be satisfied by risk-based ship design and approval. The process of alternative ship design and arrangements, as described in MSC/Circ.1002 and MSC.1/Circ.1212, requires a risk analysis to demonstrate that the risk contribution of the novel design is less or equal to the present design. Thus the application of this process can also be regarded as risk-based design. The application of risk-based design is driven by the need for continuous improvement of the efficiency leading to lower costs for design, manufacturing or operation, because it offers the required frame for the development of new innovative solutions. IACS defines safety as absence of unacceptable levels of risk to life, limb and health. Risk is defined as a measure of likelihood that an undesirable event will occur together with a measure of the resulting consequence within a specified time, i.e., the combination of the frequency or probability and the severity of the consequence. Risk-based design involves risk assessment and risk evaluation criteria that can be defined, for instance, on basis of historical data or the ALARP process (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) combined with cost-benefit analysis. In this paper the definition of a risk evaluation criterion for systems by means of ALARP and cost-benefit analysis is presented and illustrated by a sample design of a ship fuel oil system. The risk contribution tree used for the analysis is composed of fault trees and event trees. A cost-benefit analysis is applied to establish a target system risk criterion in form of a target system failure probability. Problems related to the discrete structure of systems are discussed. The work shows that different risk analysis methods are required to describe the escalation chain from a component failure to a potential accident and its consequences.
