EMERGING ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES IN SHIPPING: PART 1. CREW STABILITY

This paper examines solutions emerging in answer to the growing concern in North European shipping companies to adapt to increasing competition and technological diversity and also to attract and retain suitably qualified seafarers. Part 1 describes a move from a situation of lack of stability of crew towards greater crew stability, whilst Part 2 discusses the redistribution of reponsibility on board ship, encompassing a change from the caste-like division between officers and ratings and a more flexible division of functions and authority.
