Retaining a World-Class Team of Professionals

Genco operates three global offices in New York, Singapore, and Copenhagen. We foster an inclusive work environment, employing a gender and culturally diverse team of people. 

We empower our employees.

We provide employees with upward mobility potential and invest in them through continuing professional development programs and professional certifications.

Building a Strong Safety Culture

We lead several initiatives emphasizing safety, reliability, and quality across all our operations including:

  • Partnering with MER Solutions to mitigate operational risk by performing third-party vessel audits 
  • Conducting a loss prevention seminar for all captains and chief engineers of our vessels
  • Emphasizing crew wellness as an integral part of daily operations to provide a high level of support to our sailors 
  • Promoting a strong safety culture through increased awareness and incident prevention strategies

 

We implemented industry-leading protocols relating to crew rotations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We view every customer interaction as an opportunity to further demonstrate our safety culture, with procedures and protocols in place to identify risk. We will continue to improve through shared learning, embracing different perspectives, and challenging our own views. We have set targets with a goal of zero accidents and ISM Code non-conformities.
