The IACS published its Annual Review for 2023. The most noticeable changes compared to the previous year: ABS was able to stop the negative trend, overtaking DNV and swapping places in the rankings accordingly. Eleven out of twelve IACS members have seen an increase in the number of ships but have held their position.   New to the list: Türk Loydu (TL). This class has been a member of IACS since the first of November 2023 and counts 114 ships.   The numerical difference of 1,198 between the entire IACS fleet and the ships registered in the individual classes can be attributed to the double-classed ships, which are then also counted twice. #maritime #classification #iacs #maritimeindustry #ankron #shipping #watertreatment #commissioning #safety

WHAT IS PRIDE TO YOU?  Each year, ASC formally recognises individuals who have shown outstanding effort and embodied ASC’s values of protect, respect, integrity, discipline, and excellence (PRIDE). Hear from this year’s winner, Sharon, who showed exceptional integrity in her work in the Sovereign Shipbuilding Talent Pool program. A program focused on retaining, growing and developing Australia’s shipbuilding workforce. How does it feel to have formal recognition? “Incredibly proud and humbled!” says Sharon. What do the PRIDE values mean to you? “It’s leading by example and embedding each individual PRIDE value in how we engage, operate and deliver our work.” Can you share any career advice? “Recently I had an executive tell me to ‘get comfortable with the uncomfortable’, that just about sums up my career. Jumping in the deep end, knowing I have the safety net of my team and mentors to support me when I feel out of my depth. Ultimately, it’s been those experiences, where I’ve initially felt uncomfortable, that I have been able to learn and develop the most.” Learn more about ASC’s PRIDE values: https://lnkd.in/dYpAe46n #DefenceCareers #defence #DefenceIndustry
