Answer
A - The International Safety Management (ISM) Code is crucial for fostering a safe working culture at sea. It establishes policies and procedures to ensure safety at sea and prevent accidents. This includes guidelines for management responsibilities, safe operating practices, emergency preparedness, and continuous improvement
through Audits and reviews. Compliance with ISM standards helps promote a culture of safety among shipowners, operators, and crew members, prioritizing the well-being of everyone on board.
It should be accepted by the top management and percolates down to the lowest most crew member at the grass root level.
• All involved should aim to create a safe working culture.
Safe Working Culture is not explicitly mentioned as a word in ISM code but is the actual essence of ISM code.
