International Maritime Human Factors Symposium

The maritime sector faces a period of unprecedented change and opportunity.

Central to successful change management is effective leadership and recognising the importance of our people, their professionalism, motivation and commitment. It has never been more important to understand the needs of our colleagues, their expectations of working in the sector and how their careers can be developed and supported.

This year our work in this area will bring together an international audience of great influence who will help us explore key areas including:

• Autonomy, Automation, and Human Factors
• Safety Culture
• Safety Learning
• Risk and Human Reliability
• Human Factors in Design
• Decarbonization and Human Factors
• Well-being and Mental Health

This is an annual event that brings together academia, industry, and regulatory bodies to enhance maritime safety and operational efficiency. It emphasises the crucial role of Human Factors in risk management and safety.

The symposium addresses the complex relationship between human and organisational factors in maritime operations. It serves as a platform for sharing research, exchanging ideas, and establishing best practices to minimise maritime accidents.

Come and join us to discuss the future of our sector and the key role of our best asset – our people.

The delegate and speaker fees are £210 including two days of conference, conference networking breaks and lunches, conference dinner on the first night of the conference.

Guest speaker will be:

Mr. Bingbing Song (Head, Maritime Training and Human Element Subdivision for Operation, Safety and Human Element Maritime Safety Division) from IMO
