  • Reporting vessel defects, accidents and hazardous occurrences to the owner or designated person;
  • Assigning SMS related duties and responsibilities to onboard personnel; and

A Safety Management System is a formal documented system of policies, procedures and records developed by an operator for a particular vessel that focus on the management of risk (both identification and controls) in relation to operational and passenger safety.  Documented operational and emergency procedures form two important elements of an Safety Management System but there are other mandatory elements that an Safety Management System must address.

The National Standard for Commercial Vessels Part E Operational Practices specifies the minimum requirements for an Safety Management System for domestic vessels.
