Global Safety Day 2025 on board: Highlighting the digital safety culture

Seafarers across the fleet participated during this year’s Global Safety Day. With the theme "Revolutionizing health and safety: the role of AI and digitalization at work”, seafarers explored the impact of AI and technology on safety at sea.

Crew members took part in four key sessions: 

  • [A]I CARE – An introduction to AI and a self-assessment on digital wellness 
  • [A]I SHARE – Group discussions on social media risks and responsible online behavior 
  • [A]I SCARE – Exploring the challenges of AI overreliance, training, and cybersecurity 
  • [A]I GOT THE POWER! – An interactive quiz testing skills in identifying misinformation and risky digital content
