| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of the present study was to assess the impact of pilot nationality to safety
performance of the bridge team under pilotage operations. In order to address this, a
simulation experiment was conducted to compare homogeneous teams and heterogeneous
teams. The main task of the bridge team was to safely navigate the vessel. In addition, a
proposed safety assessment framework based on safety performance indicators was
formulated as a tool for the assessment. The result showed that heterogeneous teams
performed better than homogeneous teams. Nevertheless, this did not necessarily indicate that
heterogeneous teams performed the task in a safer manner than homogeneous teams.
Furthermore, the impact of nationality to safety performance of the bridge team was
inconclusive. Therefore, further research is needed. | nb_NO |
