I have a couple of examples of situations that have resulted in positive action when people actually had the balls to complain and also report poor cleanliness , infestations and excessive noise to the authorities
The Toisa Wave was chucked off a cable job in Denmark for poor food and noise , some cabins had over 100DB recorded when thrusters were on and the food was unhygenic due to poor supevision of the Phillipino cooks .but only after personel had on mass complained to Danish authorities on shore who sent out inspectors who condemned the vessel until modifications and new arrangement were made ,
In UAE the Zakhir pelican had to put into port for 8 days and all personel put into hotels due to an insect infestation ,which caused sickness on board all personel required to have full medical checks and vessel fumigated and deep cleaned , all bedding was destroyed and plumbing was flushed before being allowed back into the field ,but 4 guys required hospitals stays for respiritary problems and fevers , but to get this result reports had to be sent to local authorities to get action as contractor and client were not concerned .
Saipem have problems with bad food ,and appalling insanitary conditons on many vessels owned and managed by Saipem ,
but its inconsistant as contracted vessels that are owned by Bourbon or Farstad that work for Saipem are well run , with good conditions .
Complaining about conditions on a saipem owned vessel get blank stares or open abuse from managment .
