The present study focuses on the pattern of organizational commitment and job satisfaction among seafarers working on passenger vessels, compared to those working on board other types of ships. The dependent variable in the study is organizational commitment. Work position, age and job satisfaction are used as independent variables. The question posed in this study is whether the pattern of organizational commitment and job satisfaction differ depending on the proximity to passengers. The material is based on a survey sent to a random sample of seafarers in the Swedish Transport Agency’s register of seafarers. It has been analyzed with descriptive statistics and multivariate regressions comparing the two categories of vessels. The results show that organizational commitment is higher on passenger vessels, while the effect of job satisfaction on organizational commitment is slightly higher for ships that do not carry passengers. For managers in the service department, the level of commitment is to a higher extent dependent on job satisfaction. Development and communication of career options and opportunities for the service crew is suggested as a way to enhance organizational commitment and job satisfaction among this group.

A comprehensive assessment of watchkeeping officers should be considered as a preventive measure in terms of safety of navigation. Watchkeeping officers are assigned after passing exams of state authorities and various evaluation procedures of companies. However, they are not subjected to comprehensive evaluations with practical implementations. Therefore, this study aims to develop effective use of simulators in terms of comprehensive evaluation of watchkeeping officers. In this study, simulation was designed with Goal-Directed Task Analysis (GDTA) technique to indicate important points on the situations watchkeeping officers face in navigation. 3 parameters were determined for difficulty adjustment; visibility, traffic density, geography. At the last phase of this study, performance evaluation method was prepared for performance evaluation of watchkeeping officer and scenario was evaluated for comprehensiveness by oceangoing masters. Hereby, the developed performance evaluation method for navigation can be used to generate more reliable method to evaluate the officers’ competence of technical skills.
