Abstract
Safety is an important issue in the shipping industry. Despite shipping modernization, maritime accident rate is still high, this being mainly due to human errors when undertaking the operations. A variety of studies have suggested that human errors are the major contributory factor of shipping accidents in which about 80% of marine casualties are caused, at least in part, by some forms of human error (Fotland, 2004; Corovic and Djurovic, 2013; Ung, 2015; Akyuz and Celik, 2015).
