Record-breaking year in safety for ESL Shipping
(Posted on 06/03/25)
ESL Shipping, the leading carrier of dry bulk cargoes in the Baltic region, has achieved remarkable success in safety during the past year, notably reporting zero lost-time injuries throughout its entire operations. This achievement encompasses all vessels owned by the company and those participating in the Green Coaster Pool. While incidents did occur, they were all minor and effectively managed through First Aid or medical treatment.
The company's commitment to safety is reflected in the significant reduction of the Total Recordable Incident Rate, which saw a decrease of 50%, bringing it down to 4.6. This statistic highlights the long-term work for safe working practices and the strong safety mindset of the whole personnel.
Furthermore, ESL Shipping's performance in regulatory compliance was excellent, as the Port State Control deficiency ratio remained significantly lower than the average set by the Paris Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
ESL Shipping will publish its 2024 Sustainability Report in April 2025.
ESL Shipping’s competitive edge is based on its ability to responsibly secure product and raw material transportation for industries and energy production all year around, even in difficult weather conditions. The shipping company loads and unloads large ocean liners at sea as a special service. ESL Shipping Ltd has been in business for over 75 years and is a subsidiary of Aspo Plc. The combined fleet of ESL Shipping and AtoB@C Shipping consists of over 40 vessels with cargo capacity ranging from 4,000 to 25,000 dwt.
