A system of multilingual safety and intercultural interaction in cruise operations: the P.L.I.T.K.O. methodology and prospects for its integration into maritime education

Анотація

The modern cruise ship is a complex multicultural and multilingual operating environment in which the effectiveness of the safety system depends directly on the quality of communication — between a crew drawn from dozens of countries and passengers from close to two hundred nations. The governing international safety instruments — SOLAS, STCW, the International Safety Management (ISM) Code and the IMO Standard Marine Communication Phrases — set out mandatory requirements for training and communication, yet they do not systematically address the linguistic and cultural variability that shapes how safety instructions are received under critical conditions. The article sets out the architecture of maritime safety and the place of communication within it, and presents the author’s P.L.I.T.K.O. methodology: a structured, six-component system spanning performance diagnostics and analytics, linguistic and cultural mapping, implementation design, training, operational integration, and outcome measurement. The dedicated multilingual safety-communication module, Safe- Speak Excellence, is examined in detail. The article makes the case for embedding the methodology in the curricula of maritime academies and universities, and proposes a model for that integration.
