Safe Bulkers, Inc., an international provider of marine dry bulk transportation services, has announced that from 1 June, it is voluntary implementing a new computerised Integrated Management System (IMS) in compliance with DryBMS Standards.
The new IMS replaces the existing Safety Management System (SMS), is in line with Rightship RISQ3, focusing on Crew Welfare and SSI Code of Conduct, and ensuring the competence and commitment to the highest level of standards of our staff and fleet.
Dr. Loukas Barmparis, President of the Company commented: “Our IMS facilitates higher levels of performance in terms of safety, health, security and pollution prevention for our fleet, going beyond compliance with international legislation, recognised guidelines and common practices across the industry, providing us with the opportunity to work closely together with our charterers in raising industry standards.”
The company is an international provider of marine dry-bulk transportation services, transporting bulk cargoes, particularly grain, coal and iron ore, along worldwide shipping routes for some of the world’s largest users of marine dry-bulk transportation services.
