Guidance for the Employment of Private Maritime Security Companies
Year: 2021 Language: english Author: OCIMF Genre: Guide Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 26 Description: The general use of Private Maritime Security Companies (PMSCs) onboard merchant ships is widely accepted as a measure to keep seafarers safe from harm and to protect vessels operating in areas of increased threat. It should be noted that industry best management practice (BMP) does not recommend or endorse the employment of PMSCs and any decision to do so rests with the individual ship operator where allowed and authorised by the Ship’s Flag. Any company employing a PMSC should consider the Voluntary Principals on Security and Human Rights (VPSHR), which promotes a set of principles to guide companies on how to conduct their security operations while respecting human rights. This guidance, along with the example and expectations checklist items at the Appendices, is intended to help owners/operators with pre-selection considerations prior to entering into any agreement with a PMSC.
