problem of how the process of loading free and frozen loads at MV Meratus Medan 1
and the factors causing damage to the cargo and what efforts are being undertaken
to prevent the occurrence of damage. In writing this thesis is based on the author's

method is then described in detail.
Based on the research done by the author during screening at MV Meratus
Medan 1. In the handling of frozen and frozen cargo at MV Meratus Medan 1 there
are problems that are not in accordance with the procedure. The problem is the lack
of crew responsibilities for their individual duties and the absence of crew in
assessing the risk conditions. The data were collected in the form of approaches to
objects through observation, direct interviews on the subject and using documents
and data related to the implementation of cold and frozen cargo handling control.
