Record-breaking year in safety: no lost-time injuries
ESL Shipping achieved remarkable success in safety during the past year, notably reporting zero lost-time injuries throughout its entire operations. This achievement encompasses all vessels owned by the company and those participating in the Green Coaster Pool. While incidents did occur, they were all minor and effectively managed through First Aid or medical treatment.
The company's commitment to safety is reflected in the significant reduction of the Total Recordable Incident Rate, which saw a decrease of 50%, bringing it down to 4.6. This statistic highlights the long-term work for safe working practices and the strong safety mindset of the whole personnel.
Furthermore, ESL Shipping's performance in regulatory compliance was excellent, as the Port State Control deficiency ratio remained significantly lower than the average set by the Paris Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
ESL Shipping will publish its 2024 Sustainability Report in April 2025.
