Crewing Manual9.2 Fatigue Management The most powerful means of relieving fatigue is to get proper sleep and to rest when appropriate. There are however a number of steps that can be taken to prevent fatigue. Steps such as the following are important in the prevention of fatigue on board ship, and are within the Master’s ability to influence and/or implement:  Ensuring compliance with maritime regulations (minimum hours of rest and/or maximum hours of work)  Using rested personnel to cover for those traveling long hours to join the ship and whom are expected to go on watch as soon as they arrive on board (e.g. allowing proper time to overcome fatigue and become familiarized with the ship)  Maintaining open communications with senior management by informing supervisors when fatigue is impairing their performance  Improving shipboard conditions to ensure that when there is an opportunity to sleep, crew members can take advantage of it without interruptions, e.g. by scheduling drills and routine maintenance functions in a manner that minimizes the disturbance of rest/sleep periods  Assigning work by mixing up tasks to break monotony and to combine work requiring high physical or mental demand with low-demand tasks (job rotation)  Scheduling potentially hazardous tasks for daytime hours  Taking time to personally verify that watch-keeping personnel are getting adequate rest  Ensuring that shipboard conditions, within the crew’s ability to influence, are maintained in a good state (e.g. maintaining the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning on schedule, light bulbs are replaced, sources of unusual noise are taken care of at the first opportunity)Controlled Revision: 01 Jan 2015CRM Part A - CRW Doc No. 009REST AND WORK PERIODS Approval: WBF Page: 2 of 5

Crewing Manual  Re-appraising traditional work patterns and areas of responsibility on board to establish the most efficient utilization of resources (such as sharing the long cargo operations between all the deck officers instead of the traditional pattern and utilizing rested personnel to cover for those who have travelled long hours to join the ship and who may be expected to go on watch as soon as they arrive)  Promoting supportive relationships on board (good morale) and dealing with interpersonal conflict between seafarers  Establishing shipboard practices for dealing with fatigue incidents and learning from them (e.g. as part of the safety meetings)  Increasing awareness of the long term health care of appropriate lifestyle behavior (e.g. exercise, relaxation, nutrition, smoking and alcohol consumption)9.3 Best Practice Implementation To support operations and yet maintain a safe shipboard working environment, the company requires risk assessments to be undertaken at those times when the crew experiences a situation where they are not getting adequate rest. To assist Master to assess the risks associated with fatigue, the company is providing each vessel with Digital Fatigue Calculators. These evaluate the degree of risk based on hours of sleep and allow the user to determine how long before fatigue reaches an unacceptable level based on a score. These scores were established by the University of South Australia after extensive studies of fatigue and fatigue prevention in Australia for the transport industry. Three Fatigue Calculators are provided to each vessel, together with this Directive, for permanent stationing on the bridge, in the Cargo Control Room or Ships Office, and in the Engine Control Room. In cases where a crew member is required to work outside scheduled working hours the fatigue calculator can be used to assess individual fatigue. At no time should a SeaTeam employee continue to work beyond the threshold when fatigue risk becomes extreme, as determinedControlled Revision: 01 Jan 2015CRM Part A - CRW Doc No. 009REST AND WORK PERIODS Approval: WBF Page: 3 of 5

Crewing Manual by a score of 13+ on the Fatigue Calculator. If the crew is required to work with an elevated risk as indicated by a score of 6 - 12 on the Fatigue Calculator, appropriate risk control measures should be introduced. These include; o Reviewing symptoms of fatigue o Ensuring symptom monitoring is incorporated into crew resource management strategies o Provision of support napping o Replacement of position with other employees who are rested Required Training / Staff Induction A CBT module has been provided to each vessel together with the Fatigue Calculators and senior officers should use this to familiarize themselves with the use of the fatigue calculator. Non-Conformances with Working & Resting Hours To assist vessels in complying with statutory requirements and company guidelines, it should be noted that: o Non-Conformances in Working & Resting Hours should be documented in company format in ShipNet o Non-Conformances may not include more than 25% of crew at any one time o Non-Conformances may not continue longer than the exceptions specified in the flag issued DMLC Part I o The DPA Should be immediately notified of any situation where this policy cannot be complied withControlled Revision: 01 Jan 2015CRM Part A - CRW Doc No. 009REST AND WORK PERIODS Approval: WBF Page: 4 of 5
