SECURITY

Well aware of the vital importance of stringent security measures, Danaos Corporation implements on board every vessel a hands-on management system detailed in the Ship Security Plan (SSP).

Masters and Security Officers have the support needed to carry out their duties as required by the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS).

Measures stipulated in the SSP are designed to prevent any unlawful act likely to jeopardize the safety and security of persons, property and environment.

All officers and ratings are responsible for ensuring that the SSP is effectively applied. In addition, visitors, inspectors, suppliers, and any third party seeking to board the ship, are also required to comply with the SSP.

Our secure working environment entails:

   •  Safeguards for passengers and crew.

   •  Procedures to protect ports and the community at large.

   •  Contingency measures in the event of a security breach.

   •  Comprehensive training.

   •  Active promotion of security awareness among personnel both ashore and on-board.

   •  Regular documented interviews, internal audits and security assessments.

   •  Ongoing review and update of company security policy and measures.
