However, unacceptable high number of serious or fatal incidents still occurred on-board while crew involving in lifeboats' drills and routine maintenance. Therefore, there is a need for an appropriate competency evaluation tool that can make reliable decision and suitable to be implemented on offshore facilities. The paper proposed a competency evaluation tool for continuous improvement of offshore lifeboat coxswains' performance and minimize human errors. The Offshore Coxswain Competency Evaluation Tool (OC2ET) is separated into two sections, where section 1 describes base template and section 2 describes assessment template. The basis of the OC2ET is compared against OPITO Offshore Lifeboat Coxswain Training Standard and OPITO Offshore Lifeboat Coxswain Competence Assessment. The results demonstrate that the OC2ET proved as a promising evaluation tool for a company to monitor and identify the competency level of coxswain on-board after the respective coxswain completed and obtained offshore lifeboat coxswain competency certification from training centers. The gap and lacking of each coxswain for further training and development in different competency stages is identified in more detailed manners, specifically for individual offshore installation. {\^A}{\copyright} 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc..
