navigation vessels”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2021, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by March 2021.

Introduction
In the case of emergency on board of a passenger vessel for inland navigation, each crew member and
each member of the shipboard personnel is expected to know which duty he/she has to fulfil. For the
emergency cases breakdown, fire on board, evacuation, and person over board, the relevant duties for
the various positions in one of the above mentioned emergencies are listed herein.
The object of the safety rota is the distribution of such duties so that each person on board knows
his/her duty in a case of emergency and that the duties are not allocated twice or that too many duties
are assigned to the same person (e.g. a boatmaster cannot secure the vessel and, at the same time, carry
out safety measures in engine room).
The intention of safety plans is to support quick orientation, especially for external persons (e.g.
passengers, rescue workers) in the case of emergency.
This document is intended to facilitate the preparation of a safety rota and safety plans according to
consistent and comprehensible criteria. In addition, this document should support the persons in
charge of the operation of a passenger vessel to train and deploy the employees on board so that
qualified assistance can be given in every case of emergency mentioned above.
With the help of this document, the requirements of Article 19.13 of ES-TRIN can easily be fulfilled.
