Most people who choose to take leisure slowly on a luxury cruise ship are hoping that everything is perfect. I am looking forward to the beautiful ocean view, the sitting relaxed under the sun, infinite food and drinks. Many exotic harbors and various fun day trip ideas are exciting. Because a cruise ship can stay in one place while your room is moving all over the world. Modern cruise ships are basically floating urban blocks. They include all amenities and utilities that make up a comparable land-based location. From the lowest cargo hold to the top deck, you need to consider cruise ships paying attention to maintenance and safety as well as any hotels and buildings. The marine environment further enhances the need for periodic inspection and maintenance.
Many cruise ships are deficient in maintaining and inspecting many elements that are within reach of ordinary citizens and passengers. Injuries occur on almost every cruise ship. There are similarities in various cruise lines, and the kinds of injuries are very similar. In general, the staff responsible for maintenance and inspection of the specific product or area where the accident occurred is often unskilled or insufficient for its work. For example, it is not uncommon for maintenance managers responsible for evaluating automatic doors to confirm that they have not received training to know how to evaluate the safe operation of the door system. Former captains or bartenders are often promoted and used as maintenance workers when positions become available. A crew who is bored with his position, or who may be searching for an increase in monthly salary, is looking for another job that provides some changes in the routine.
Maintenance of potentially dangerous areas is often not possible. Crew members are instructed or unknown to observe whether it is necessary to observe potentially problematic dangerous equipment or design elements on the ship.
Cruise ship injury example
The automatic sliding glass door system operated without proper interaction of the sensor. A woman on the way to the buffet was pinned and pinned in an accessory corner when the door repeatedly knocked her after she tried to get on the foot. This woman had legs and pelvis completely broken and could not heal properly and it was impossible for her to walk up to the bedroom and it was restricted to live under her house since the incident It was.
The little boy was caught by the steel bulkhead door when the door closer malfunctioning as if the ship was going up to a heavy waters area could not delay the door swing. Bulkhead doors were improperly protected by rusted hardware due to insufficient inspection and repair. His arms and shoulders are broken, which causes early-onset arthritis and may lead to partial mobility in the future.
As the couple was taking a walk in the past shops in the center of the main promenade, the glass panels disappeared and scattered over them. It is due to misplacement of the glass channel and no observations of any kind have been recorded so far. The maintenance worker who cleaned the glass last week actually saw loose screws and hardware on the floor adjacent to the window of the shop last week. No information on this hardware was mentioned by the supervisor or administrator. After hitting the glass plate, the woman sustained injuries on the neck and shoulders that require surgery later. Glass fragments were removed from his face and eyes.
A person who entered the pool deck area was caught when the automatic doorway could not be opened. He was stuck for over an hour during the part of the entrance that rotates. Because of the high fever of the compartment, he suffered a stroke. When the crew who attended collapsed to the ground of the doorway, he broke the glass cylinder surrounding his body very close to him. The man was hospitalized and died two weeks after the incident.
Closing the small door injured the door violently and the little child was hurt. The child had two fingers severed for sudden closing doors. The ship was still berthing in the port of South America, and the child was brought to a local hospital. My finger failed to reinstall.
While sleeping in his cabin bed, the comforter on top of his bed fell to the guest. He woke up with wood and metal sharks awoke. He was taken to the hospital by the ship's doctor when the ship arrived in a few hours. He had severe infections due to poor medical care he received and had to undergo cutting of his arms.
Design elements of architectural woodwork fell to a couple on the dance floor. A part of the surrounding decoration was removed and it was dropped by an undoubted dancer. The workers reset the speakers by moving the lights at the disco lounge. They inadvertently suspended the cable that fixed the woodworkers during the remodeling. The man also received scratches and bruises as well as stroke. He was hospitalized later and lost partial vision.
Similar cases and claims that arise as a result of these injuries are continuous and repetitive. From a boring point of view, it is expected that any passenger on a cruise ship will be protected safely, protected from inadequately maintained facilities and postponed conditions. From a defensive standpoint, passengers are known to act in a way that creates conditions and is impossible to predict. It is the responsibility of all ships to properly inspect and maintain all systems of cruise ships.
In general, the lack of proper maintenance by trained personnel was the origin of most injuries on the ship. Foreign-born crew are accustomed to different standards of care regarding the maintenance of some of these cruise ships. At the time of discovery, several cruise lines trying to protect their status have issued a statement that they do not need to comply with the building standards and ordinances related to the port. Many of the vessels currently in use are built abroad and do not incorporate the same rules and rules as American passengers expect.
It is important to evaluate each claim individually. The cruise line needs to maintain the highest possible ship. Passengers should pay attention to their surroundings and be wary of any ship or cruise line they choose. In many cases, the turnaround time when passengers change during a cruise is not enough to make the necessary repairs before new passenger boarding. Maintenance can not be performed or needed for other work while the crew is currently on the port. Regardless of what most cruise lines convey to the public about the ship's workers, crew members are treated like obliged slaves often. They are working for their defense and believe that employment on ships is a vast improvement on what kind of employment is available in their home country. Crews are often on boats and there is little or no time working on board. They are busy and often tired. They rely on the generosity and hints of passengers to serve for a considerable part of their income stream.
Passenger accidents and injuries occur regularly on cruise ships. I have not confirmed the statistics on the number of injuries. Number of passengers to travel. In case of injury, the common response by discovery from the cruise line is that they have a large number of passengers every day, this is the first time this happened.
Passengers are exposed to vehicles, activities and architectural design elements that are rarely regulated for safety, as the size of the ship increases and the need for service increases further. There are cruises offering onboard roller coasters, zip lines and parachute air tours. If these vehicles are based in the US, strict regulation, periodic inspections and government safety monitoring will be carried out. However, while you are abroad, it is not necessarily regulated for safety. Comparison with the level of safety was the difference between a temporary carnival at the parking lot and a Disney park ride. When pursuing these attractions, passengers need to pay attention as they may be the only work safety device that is part of that action.
