Accident and near-accident registration system at sea

ATVIK seafarers is an electronic and centralised online incident reporting system which helps fisheries operators to manage all incidents relating to safety in the working environment of seafarers and accidents of seafarers on board their ships.

Seafarers may record the following incidents concerning their safety and living conditions on board:

• Reminders for e.g. hazards in the work environment and unsafe equipment

• Almost an accident

• Minor accidents

• Absence accidents

• Threats, e.g. bullying, sexual harassment and violence

Purpose and objectives

The recording of incidents in ATVIKs provides important information that provides comprehensive insight into the extent of incidents at sea, which can be used in preventive measures in fisheries and contributes to a safer working environment for fishermen.
