GL releases GL Crew Manager
(June 29 2012)
The recent announcement of Sweden's ratification of the Maritime Labour
Convention, 2006 (MLC 2006) means that only two more ILO member ratifications
will be required before the convention can enter into force.
With only 12 months between final ratification by the 30th ILO member and MLC
2006 coming into effect, shipowners, operators and manning agencies should be
preparing for the wide ranging impact of the convention.
Class society Germanischer Lloyd (GL) recommended combining the adjustments
that the MLC 2006 will require to crewing processes with the implementation of
an electronic system to support these processes and provide evidence of
compliance.
To support the maritime industry in this process, GL has developed the GL Crew
Manager software system.
Designed to ensure that seafarers are provided with fair, safe and decent
working and living conditions, the MLC 2006 convention requires the
documentation of many crewing processes including: checking that all required
positions on board filled, that the seafarers are medically fit, well trained
and qualified for the duties they are assigned to, and that records are
maintained of the seafarers' daily hours of work and rest.
GL Crew Manager helps shipowners, operators and crewing agencies to meet these
requirements, by enabling the standardisation and optimisation of many tasks,
including: recruitment, planning, safe manning, management of personal data,
hiring, vacation and leave management, the class society said.
An optional on board system also supports on board management of crew data,
certificates and licences, registration of resting hours and wage calculations
- smoothing the process of proving compliance in on board audits.
The system can also help in the preparations for MLC audits by generating a
pre-audit checklist, the required documentary evidence, while also highlighting
items of non-compliance which need to be addressed.
For each individual crew member there may be hundreds of associated pieces of
data - qualifications, certificates, licenses, contract data, and training
needs.
GL Crew Manager allows for the efficient management of large crew pools through
a graphical view of the current and planned assignments for each individual
vessel, and automatic matching of crew availability and suitability with vessel
manning requirements.
The data generated by the system can be accessed anywhere, through a remotely
managed server, with role based users access levels determined by the user's
login.
An intelligent data transfer routine allows synchronisation of the data between
office and any vessels using the optional on board system, GL said.
