The amount of safety related knowledge that the crewmembers of SPV Royal Clipper have, is questioned. More than it should be, crewmembers are unable to answer the basic questions about safety. This is basic knowledge, that should be known from the moment the crewmember have concluded the familiarization training just after embarking the vessel. Knowing this, the training itself has to be the first process to investigate.
To provide an answer on the main question “Is todays familiarization briefing sufficient enough for all crewmembers on board of SPV Royal Clipper?” this study investigates the familiarization trainings session by means of questionnaires’ performed on crewmembers after completing their training. The first questionnaire is taken immediately after the training. The questionnaire is taken for a second time, two months later. A difference is being found between the three departments on board this cruise ship. The deck department has an overall better knowledge of the safety on board, compared to the engine and hotel departments. The results of the second questionnaire show an overall improvement in knowledge after working two months onboard.
Although the results of the questionnaire give a good insight on the theoretical knowledge of the crewmembers and less in the practical knowledge, based on these results several recommendations could be made. A recurring fact in the recommendations is time for training. More training is needed but who should give it and when should it be done?
For broader perspective in the practical knowledge further research could be performed.
