From overseeing steel cutting to final delivery of the ship to the owner, Pooja is India’s first and only female ship surveyor.Since the safety of a vessel is key to surveying, as a surveyor her task is to ensure that the ship is built, repaired or recycled as per rules laid down by ship classification societies such as United Kingdom-based Lloyd’s Register and conform to other statutory regulations.Like Indian women seafarers before her, Pooja has managed to break another glass ceiling in the Indian shipping sector as a ship surveyor.
