Description

Everyone has the right to work safely onboard a vessel, and personal safety is a shared responsibility. Each individual plays a vital role in maintaining a safe working environment by following procedures and looking out for others.

Life at sea can present hazards, from slips and trips to risks involving equipment and chemicals. While these challenges are part of the job, they are never an excuse for unsafe behaviour. A strong safety culture understanding responsibilities, recognising hazards, and taking action helps prevent accidents, many of which can have life-changing consequences.

Familiarisation training ensures you understand onboard systems, emergency procedures, and safe practices, while rules and regulations provide the standards to follow.

In this module, you will learn about safety culture, common accident types, familiarisation requirements, chemical hazards, and the rules that support personal safety onboard.
