04 Jul 22 Maritime Safety Week 2022 The UK Chamber of Shipping comments on the launch of Maritime Safety Week 2022 Commenting on the launch of Maritime Safety Week 2022 CEO of the UK Chamber of Shipping Sarah Treseder said:“One death or injury at sea is one too many.“The UK Chamber of Shipping has a long history of promoting good safety practice, which can only be achieved by working collaboratively with shipowners, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) and unions. Our Safety Culture Charter encourages ship owners to share information openly, whether on the practices helping to reduce accidents and the barriers to their adoption, or the critical lessons to be learned when things do go wrong.“We are proud to be supporting Maritime Safety Week, which provides an important focal point to remind everyone how we can save lives at sea.” Share:
