HEALTH AND SAFETY STANDARDS

General

In signing the Application for Survey (MSF 5100), the owner/manager agrees to provide appropriate

safety precautions, including those described below. Maritime & Coastguard Agency (MCA) surveyors will not sign any documentation limiting the liability of the owner or operator.

The MCA expects appropriate safety precautions to be taken when one of its surveyors attends a vessel or site for survey or inspection purposes.

The vessel/site owner has responsibility for all activities onboard/onsite respectively and for ensuring compliance with the relevant national health and safety legislation (Merchant Shipping Act (worldwide) and Health & Safety at Work Act (UK only)).

When conducting work overseas, the MCA expects equivalent standards to those of the UK to be provided and in addition, compliance with any local requirements.

Guidance and information on acceptable safety arrangements onboard can be found in the Code of Safe Working Practices for Merchant Seafarers, available at https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/maritime-and-coastguard-agency For shore side operations (including drydocks) guidance can be obtained from the Health & Safety Executive (www.hse.gov.uk).

The MCA surveyor will make a professional judgement, including the use of a risk assessment if

appropriate, as to the health and safety arrangements provided. If the arrangements are judged to be insufficient, the surveyor will refuse to continue with the survey or inspection until such time as they have been satisfactorily addressed.

Safe Means of Access

Provision of safe means of access on UK ships (when operating in the UK or overseas) is a legal requirement.

On large ships the accommodation ladder or a gangway should be used; these must be fit for purpose and properly maintained. If boarding at sea, an accommodation ladder should be used where possible,

but where a safe transfer from the boat to the bottom platform cannot be provided an appropriate pilot ladder should be considered.

Reference should be made to MGN 591 (M+F), as amended, for guidance on acceptable arrangements on smaller vessels.

Portable ladders should only be used where no safer access is reasonably practicable; it must be fit for purpose, properly maintained and secured against movement.

Transfer Vessels

A vessel used for any transfer to a ship underway or at anchor must be fit for purpose. In the UK the vessel must be appropriately certificated for the purpose of which it is being used (e.g. Workboat, Pilot Boat).

If overseas, an equivalent level of safety will be expected, including compliance with any local requirements. A letter detailing minimum acceptable arrangements is available from the relevant MCA Marine Office upon request.

The transfer will not take place if actual or forecast weather conditions are beyond the capability and/or certification of the transfer vessel throughout the expected time for the work, including return transfer time.

Access in and around Vessel

Safe movement around a vessel or site should not be impeded by cables, hoses, waste material, work equipment, etc. Adequate ventilation and lighting should be provided in all work areas.

Strict procedures must be in place for higher risk activities, e.g. working at height, working in enclosed/confined spaces. Further guidance can be found in the Code of Safe Working Practices for Merchant Seafarers.

Procedures for the use of stages and staging (e.g. scaffold towers) should be according to a national industry standard and the structure must have been inspected by a competent person. Stages and staging should always be secured against movement.
