Maritime transportation is indispensable for world trade. Marine casualties have serious consequences. The majority of the accidents in the maritime industry are caused by human error. If necessary precautions are taken, human error can be prevented to a great extent. Safety culture is of tremendous importance in taking precautions and preventing accidents. The concept of safety culture emerged after the Chernobyl accident. Today, the importance of safety culture in preventing accidents is accepted by all international organizations.
