What is ISO 30000 Ship Recycling Management System?
Ship dismantling and recycling activities in our country and in the world are one of the most important sectors that provide added value in terms of recycling the minerals and other equipment used in the production of ships and bringing them back into the system. However, the environment and human health are also negatively affected during the realization of ship dismantling activities.
The ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Standard published by the International Standard Organization (ISO) has been established to effectively manage the processes related to waste and employee management during dismantling and recycling, from the dismantling stage of a ship coming to the facility for ship dismantling and recycling to the complete disposal stage.
The most current version of the standard published by ISO was published in 2009 as ISO 30000:2009.
ISO 30000 Ship Recycling Management System Basic Principles
The ISO 30000 standard includes the following elements for its establishment, operation and maintenance
General Requirements
Identify management system documents and requirements related to ship dismantling and ship recycling.
Waste and Occupational Safety Charges
Implementation of impact waste and occupational health and safety before, during and after the ship dismantling and recycling process.
Planning
Planning and management of effective waste and occupational safety practices in ship dismantling and ship recycling phases should be ensured.
Controlling
The system of control, internal audit and corrective action system related to ship dismantling and recycling operations should be established and its effective management should be ensured.
Implementation and Operation
During dismantling and recycling, the dismantling program and changes need to be followed.
Management Review and Continuous Improvement

ISO 30000 Ship Recycling Management System Certification Process
Organizations wishing to obtain ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Certificate, after establishing the system, certification is carried out as follows.
Certification Audit:
Completion of the certification audit in two phases;
Stage 1 Audit: General examination of the documentation prepared by the company within the scope of ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System.
Stage 2 Audit: On-site control of the documentation applications prepared by the company within the scope of ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System and identification of appropriate and possible inappropriate issues.
Corrective Actions, Follow-up Audit and Certification:
If nonconformity is detected in the Stage 2 Audit, ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Certificate of Conformity is issued after the nonconformity is closed by the organization applying for certification or by the certification body with a follow-up audit according to the type and size of the nonconformity.
Surveillance Audits:
Surveillance audits are audits conducted in the second and third years after the certification audit. In surveillance audits, it is determined that the organization’s processes continue correctly after certification.
In the event that nonconformity is detected in the surveillance audit, it is decided to continue the ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Certificate of Conformity after the nonconformity is closed by the organization audited or by the certification body conducting the audit with a follow-up audit, depending on the type and size of the nonconformity.
Periodic surveillance audits are mandatory for the validity of the ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Standard Certificate and to determine that the organization’s system continues to comply with the standard. These periodic surveillance audits are 1st Surveillance and 2nd Surveillance audits. The first of these surveillance audits must be completed within 12 months after the Stage 2 audit and the second within 24 months after the Stage 2 audit.
Recertification Audit:
It is a type of audit carried out in the fourth year after the Stage 2 audit and applied to organizations that implement the ISO 30000 Ship and Marine Technology – Ship Recycling Management System Standard and have undergone the first certification audit. As in Stage 2, 1st Surveillance and 2nd Surveillance audits, documentation and application control of the organization is carried out by on-site audit.
