Dubai, UAE : Tristar Group will conduct its 3rd annual ‘Safety at Sea’ conference at the Indian Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai on December 8, from 2 to 6 pm. The conference will be attended by leaders of the maritime industry, seafarers both ashore and on board, as well as members of various bodies such as Nautical Institute, Institute of Marine Engineers, Institute of Marine Surveyors, and Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers.
The ‘Safety at Sea’ conference launched by the Maritime Logistics division of Tristar to draw industry and global attention to the importance of the physical and mental health of workers at sea. The inaugural conference was held in Dubai on November 10, 2019 and was attended physically by more than 150 decision makers and senior officials from the maritime industry and was watched remotely by over 500 seafarers based in India and the Philippines.
Last year, due to the ongoing pandemic, the conference was held virtually on December 9, 2020, with more than 1,000 attendees across the globe with a majority of officers and crew attending from aboard their vessels.
“Tristar will continue to maintain a leadership position in addressing issues related to the plight of seafarers as this is a global issue which needs all stakeholders to come together to improve the health and well-being of our seagoing colleagues,” explained Tristar Group CEO Eugene Mayne.
The third edition will be a hybrid event with physical presence limited to 100 invitees at the Indian Pavilion and the whole conference will be live streamed across the globe.
Tristar Group is currently operating a 24/7 helpline which it launched in February 2020 for its crew members through UK-based Sailors Society. This was one of the concrete actions taken after the inaugural conference in 2019. Further initiatives were a series of in-person and virtual Psychological First Aid workshops and engagements with all on board during the height of the pandemic.
Tristar is a signatory to the Neptune Declaration on Seafarer Wellbeing and Crew Change. Signed by more than 850 companies and organizations, the declaration recognizes the shared responsibility of stakeholders to prioritize health and well-being of seafarers and ensure a resilient supply chain.
