SK Shipping recognizes human resources management as the key factor for success since our foundation. We focus not just on to elevate our capabilities through various education program but also on to complete personality.

We educate standby crew with introductory program, pre-boarding program, OJT and standby crew program. Furthermore, BRM (Bridge Resource Management) / ERM (Engine room Resource Management) training and video education have worked well in maximizing each crew's capability, feeding them with up-to-date information, and building a strong team spirit. We also encourage and offer professional training by accredited world- class training centers such as MSS (Marine Safety Service).Ship/shore joint mobilized drills are conducted on a regular basis to prepare for emergency situations. Onboard drills such as SOLAS required by R&R are performed regularly.

Crew recruitment and training

We nurture first-rate professional seamen by recruiting and training crews in a systematic manner, thereby ensuring safe ship navigation and delivering the best services.
