there is installed a high-tech offshore personnel transfer system where the motion compensation platform allows easy, fast and safe access from the vessel to offshore structures, even in high wave conditions.

In End of June Olympic Boa had already performed 2500 transfers. The picture is from Olympic Orion.

OLYMPIC’S NEW EMPLOYEE SURVEY –

Since the 50s there has been conducted a significant amount of research on the impact of the organisational culture and working

on

employees’

satisfaction, performance, loyalty to the organisation and their level of absenteeism.

More recently, researchers have found employees’ perception of work also to have influence on organisational goals, such as safety, innovation and customer satisfaction.

We

know

that

employees

who

are

motivated are more likely to deliver high quality work. We know that employees who perceive the safety procedures to be easily understandable are more likely to work safely. And we know that employees who feel they are in a position to influence Olympic’s

culture. Together with Marine Q, Evidente is delivering an employee survey that is tailor made for the shipping industry. For Olympic, this survey has been further developed so that it’s now tightly linked to both our corporate values and organisational goals.

This employee survey will be sent to all captains in Q3. The captains will be asked to distribute the survey to all employees and to follow up to ensure that all are given the chance to complete. The survey is anonymous and the results will be applied to identify areas for improvement, both at organisation and vessel level.

Despite the growing interest within the maritime industry in developing working environment and organisational culture, relatively few companies are still applying such measurements. Implementing this tailor made employee survey highlights Olympic’s position as an innovative company who’s at the forefront of the development.
