	What is SSM? SSM is a safety management system for commercial vessels which ensures that vessel are maintained and operated safely throughout the year and not just on ‘survey day’. Why do we have SSM? An SSM Certificate is a vessel’s maritime document. It replaces the Survey Certificate. Every commercial vessel must display a valid SSM Certificate and operate in accordance with its Safety Management Manual. Refer to our SSM Publications section ››
