New Blood Particularly Required for the Local Vessel Sector
Among the four sectors of the industry, the Local Vessel sector had the highest percentage of ageing staff (i.e. more than 40% of their staff were over the age of 55). The sector is expected to undergo technological transformation with the introduction of new high-speed ferries which requires the operators to master new navigation skills and maintenance knowledge. To ease the ageing problem and adapt to the application of new technology, new blood is particularly required for this sector.

Growing needs for IGF Code and ESG training
The need for mandatory training on the International Code of Safety for Ships using Gases or other Low-flashpoint Fuels (IGF Code) is growing very fast since the number of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) ships is rising rapidly. While local training is not available due to the lack of expertise, local training providers may consider offering relevant programmes in collaboration with Mainland/overseas institutes. In the meantime, there have been growing concerns over sustainable shipping and responsible business practices within the industry. Investors, customers and insurers are integrating Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) risk factors into their decision-making processes. Maritime executives should be equipped with ESG concepts including ESG-related regulations, key ESG indicators applicable to the industry, as well ESG reporting framework, to assist their organisations in adopting appropriate ESG strategies.
