Claudio is a passenger on an Italian cruise ship.

Walking on the deck of the ship, he meets a gentleman

in uniform:

- Good morning! Are you the person in charge with the security on board?

- Good morning! Yes, I'm the person responsible for all it means security on board. Can I help
you?

- I've always wondered what the role of the security manager is ...

- First of all let me introduce myself: I'm Ricardo Verdi.

- I'm Claudio Rossi. Nice to meet you, Mr. Verdi!

- So ... You want to know what my job is like ... 

- Yes...

- I'll explain to you …The staff that deals with the security on board is composed of:

1. Ship Security Officer (Second Commander): responsible for safety on board.

2. Security Officer: responsible officer available 24 hours a day who manages and supervises the
Security Guards group.

3. Security Guards: resources dedicated to the control of all ship’s entrances and the supervision of
public order both between passengers and crew, checking the most frequented areas such as external
bridges, the disco, the pools and bars and the most sensitive places on the ship such as the Command
Bridge, the Radio Station or the Machine Control room.

4. Rest of the crew: the whole crew contributes to guarantee the safety / security on board, by applying
the procedures and notifying any anomalies. For this purpose, the staff is provided with the
certifications required by current legislation and receives a familiarization of security at each
embarkation.

- Now I understand ... Thank you, Mr. Verdi! You were very kind!

- You’re welcome! Can I be more informal?

- Sure! If I'm not mistaken, we have the same age!

- In this case Claudio, if you don’t have other questions for me, I wish you a wonderful holiday
here, on our ship!

- Thank you! It will surely be a beautiful holiday!
