The main responsibilities of ship security officer (SSO) are: Implementing and maintaining the ship security plan (SSP) Conducting security inspections at regular intervals of time to ensure that proper security steps are taken Making changes to the ship security plan if need arise Propose modifications to the ship security plan by taking various aspects of the ship into consideration Help in ship security assessment (SSA) Ensure that the ship's crew is properly trained to maintain a high ship security level Enhance security awareness and vigilance on board ship Guide ship's crew by teaching ways to enhance ship's security Report all security incidents to the company and the ship's master Taking view and suggestions of the company security officer and the port facility security officer into consideration while making amendments to the ship security plan Help company security officer (CSO) in his duties Take into account various security measures related to handling of cargo, engine room operations, ship's store etc. Coordinate with ship board personnel and port authorities to carry out all ship operations with utmost security Ensure that the ship security equipment is properly operated, tested, calibrated, and maintained The duties of ship security officer might change, increase, or decrease, depending on the type of the ship and situation.
