At Atlas Professionals, the physical and mental safety of our professionals and staff is of paramount importance
Atlas Professionals employees work in extremely diverse areas; therefore, we aim to provide industry-specific instructions which should be considered complementary to those laid down by our clients and regulatory bodies.
We wish to reiterate our stance and want to emphasise that we have a zero-tolerance policy toward discrimination of any kind. Having a healthy atmosphere on board is essential for the smooth functioning of our day-to-day work. We follow the Merchant Navy Code of Conduct that reinstates the adherence to the following:
Behavior towards colleagues
Misbehaviour and anti-social attitude are not tolerated on board ships. Seafarers who are involved in actions such as abusive language including racism, sexual harassment, aggressive attitude, and offensive personal habits can face suspension or discontinuation of their job contracts. Owing to the multicultural nature of shipboard work, every seafarer needs to adapt to the various needs and customs of different individuals and imbibe the positive aspects to further the efficiency of work. Do unto others as you would want others to do unto you!
Self-discipline and a positive attitude at work will take us all a long way. Let’s be kind and support each other through this journey together.
