PERSONAL SAFETY ON CONTAINER VESSELS

This part of the popular Personal Safety On Board Ships series is dealing with the personal safety of crew members working on the container vessels. We recommend you to have a close look into the associated training booklet and all other parts of the video training set - they are covering all matters of the personal safety on tankers, bulk carriers, chemical tankers, general cargo ships and also address specific safety matters in the accommodation, galley, engine room and on deck, since all of them are important.

This video will demonstrate the common hazards that are there on the container vessels. In fact, it is telling the story of a person who fell down because he did not use a portable ladder. He lay for long time but someone could find him easier if he told other crew members that he was planning to go and do some job on deck during the night time. This case has been seriously analyzed in order to understand the reasons and prevent same from happening.

In addition, the content of the video deals with other hazards associated with transportation of the containers - you will see how important it is to keep to approved routes in the terminals, keep clear of containers and not walk along the working side of the vessel...
