Holistic safety approach – Towards Achieving Zero accidents onboard: KLSM Group Safety is of paramount importance that cannot be compromised for any shipping company. Time and again companies create a healthy and safe workplace to reduce issues such as employee attrition and absenteeism in several ways. They budget for several safety improvements and make safety a part of their operational plan thus engendering the trust of their employees. By involving employees in safety decisions – through reporting, committees, walk-through and meetings - this shows that their opinions matters to the companies. And by following through on their inputs and improving safety at company proves quiet tangibly that they care about their well-being. Similarly, employees respond by working harder, showing more pride in their jobs and remaining loyal.

Believing that holistic approach towards safety achieves believing that holistic approach towards safety achieves accidents onboard; K Line Ship management Group organized a 2-day seminar for their sailing staff at The Waterstones Hotel, Mumbai on 10th & 11th July. The main focus of the seminar was to express their gratitude towards the seafarers for achieving accidents onboard targets.




Mr. Iwane Ogawara, Managing Director, K-ENE, Tokyo welcomed all the delegates and spoke about the recent developments ant KLSM group that included the planned expansion, and delivery of two new ships – TEDORIGAWA and TONEGAWA. In fact the delivery of TONEGAWA coincided with the seminar itself, informed Mr. Ogawara which was the reason for our President Capt. Toshikazu Saito missing to attend the event altogether.

Appreciating the contribution of the Indian seafarers towards running the ships safely, MR. Ogawara said, “We are successfully achieved reduction in accident rates, which are amongst the best compared to even the industry average. This was shown by facts and figures in a presentation. I appreciate your due diligence in performance which was improved the K Line rating for TMSA, and also with OCIMF. Please continue the good work already in hand”.





In his speech Capt. K. Aya, Executive Officer, K Line, Tokyo mentioned about his long association of working with K Line initially, and then with KLSM as a marine superintendent, and now back to K Line as an Executive officer. He was grateful to the Indian employees for their good performance and looked forward to continue associating with them in the years to come.

“The Indian employees have achieved many milestones for the company and adding a feather in the cap for K Line, at the same time assuring K-ENE of his staunch support for the years to come ahead. With the planned expansion of energy vessels going on, we expect more Indians to be employed, and trained as good K Liner, K-ENE officers in the long run “stated Capt. Aya.





Capt. S.K. Goyal, CEO & Managing Director, KLSM (India) welcomed all the seafarers, delegates and senior management from all over the globe. “For us, the seafarers who achieved the longest accident – free mileage are very important and they are our strength.

Additionally, this is the best platform for the seafarers to meet each other to discuss ideas, share knowledge and interact and know the company better: expressed Capt. Goyal.

This insurance covers the seafarer and their families (Wife + 2 dependent children up to the age of 23 years). The representative further explained about the policy terms and conditions, procedures etc.

The entire purpose of having a representative from Sompo was to ensure clarity for all seafarers, about the policy matters which could be better answered directly by a representative from the insurance company.

Capt. Amar Galliara, General Manager, KLSM, India arranged an Open Forum which formed the best platform for the seafarers to share their grievances, knowledge and feedback with KLSM Group’s top management. The interactive session voiced the seafarer’s views, opinions, suggestions, and concerns etc. which were discussed by the top management to enhance the seafarers comfort level and belonging with the company – onboard, as well as ashore.





KLSM Group has always believed in giving credit to its employees for their endless efforts and contributions towards the company. This year, several such seafarers were honored with long service loyalty awards at the seminar, for completing 7 & 15 years respectively with the company. It was indeed a proud moment for both – the seafarers and the company, thereby making the end to yet another successful seminar by KLSM group. Such awards also help in creating motivation for the other employees to put their best foot forward.
