The 17 Maritime Authorities of the Caribbean Memorandum of Understanding (CMOU) on Port State Control has launched their second Concentrated Inspection Campaign (CIC) with the purpose of ensuring compliance with Chapter V: Safety of Navigation, of the Annex to the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) as well as the requirements regarding hours of rest as per STCW 78 as amended. This inspection campaign will be held for three months, beginning on September 1st, 2015 and ending on November 30, 2015.
The ability to easily produce reports demonstrating compliance with Port State Control regulations is critical to avoiding costly fines and unplanned downtime due to detentions.
The NS Crew Management Module now allows users to configure work/rest hours for crew to monitor adherence to this regulation. Reports can easily be generated to show any potential violations for both sea and port schedules.
