Argo holds top accreditations in ship and crew management, including ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications from RINA, meeting both national and international standards. These certifications, along with the ISM Code’s Document of Compliance (DOC), ensure Argo meets high standards for safety, quality, and environmental protection.
Argo’s integrated management system combines ISO and ISM Code requirements to efficiently handle safety, quality, environmental issues, and occupational health. A Document Management System further supports safety by providing staff online and offline access to the latest company procedures and policies, promoting safe, compliant operations on all managed vessels.
Argo’s Integrated Policy is designed to ensure safe and efficient ship management by promoting quality performance, protecting people, and safeguarding the environment. It focuses on preventing risks, enhancing operations, and ensuring compliance, while aligning with the ISM Code to support responsible, sustainable activities.
Argo equips all crew members with CE-certified PPE, following outlined certification standards. Usage guidelines are provided in a specific Matrix, detailing the proper application and maintenance of PPE. Crew members, including technicians and representatives, must use PPE per the Matrix, maintain it, and report any defects.
The Stop Work Policy grants every crew member, technician, and inspector on board the authority to halt operations if they observe potential risks to health, safety, or the environment. This approach ensures concerns are addressed promptly, fostering a secure and compliant work environment that prioritizes safety at every stage.
Argo is committed to energy-efficient practices across all assets, including ships, offices, and facilities. This policy aligns with goals for sustainable development by reducing pollution, increasing renewable energy use, and minimizing fossil fuel dependency through recovery and efficiency measures.
The Drug and Alcohol Policy enforces a zero-tolerance stance on alcohol and drugs aboard Company-managed ships, excluding prescribed medications. Crew members must declare any prescriptions to the ship’s Master, who is responsible for monitoring and enforcing this policy on board.
The Company ensures confidentiality for all harassment and bullying complaints, promoting awareness onboard to support a respectful workplace. Zero tolerance applies, with full investigations to ensure accountability and protect individuals. Incidents can be reported to the onboard Captain or MLC Manager ashore.
The Company prioritizes ICT security to counter cyber risks linked to Big Data and Ship Intelligence. It ensures safe communication, IT compliance, and professional use of IT systems ashore and onboard, with regular audits. Only licensed software is permitted, and violations may result in disciplinary action.
