Contribute to the prevention of violence, bullying and sexual harassment on board ships (STCW 2026) amendments Training Course

The maritime industry relies on effective teamwork, professional conduct, and a strong safety culture to ensure the wellbeing of seafarers and the safe operation of ships. The prevention of violence, bullying, and sexual harassment has become an essential element of modern maritime safety management, recognising the impact that inappropriate behaviour can have on human performance, mental wellbeing, operational effectiveness, and overall shipboard safety.

The Contribute to the Prevention of Violence, Bullying and Sexual Harassment on Board Ships (STCW 2026 Amendments) programme by LMA provides participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to promote respectful working environments, recognise unacceptable behaviours, prevent incidents, and respond appropriately when concerns arise. The course is aligned with the updated STCW Convention and Code requirements, IMO guidance on preventing bullying and harassment in the maritime sector, the principles of the ISM Code, and relevant provisions of the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC, 2006). It supports maritime organisations in strengthening safety culture, improving seafarer welfare, and maintaining professional standards onboard ships.
