KOMSA was launched on July 1, 2019 with the goals of preventing maritime accidents and
running and managing a maritime transportation system.
KOMSA is dedicated to furthering existing tasks such as vessel inspections, ensuring safety management for passenger ships and developing safety technology, and to ensuring safe maritime routes through accident prevention activities, construction of a maritime transport safety system, and helping to create a culture of maritime safety.
KOMSA has made the following four promises as it seeks to build a complete and robust maritime transportation safety system with zero blind spots.
- FirstKOMSA will ensure safe marine transport through effective use of a maritime accident prevention center and proactive use of 4IR (Fourth Industrial Revolution) technology.
