Resilience, Wellbeing and purpose

Seafarers are exposed to many risks, hazards and dangers that must be assessed and managed if they are to remain safe on board. When seafarers lack resilience, they are unable to recover from setbacks, increasing the potential for incidents and accidents on board.

The fourth module in Seagull Maritime’s Resilience series identifies ways to improve resilience so that learners are able to respond positively when setbacks occur. Emphasising the importance of decisiveness, wellbeing and purposefulness, this module identifies ways to increase resilience and maintain control in difficult situations.

Learning objectives:

• Recognize the effect that improving resilience has on safety performance
• Describe the impact that decisiveness has on the theme of resilience
• Describe the impact that wellbeing has on the theme of resilience
