15.0 WORK ON DECK
Particular care is required when handling any overside equipment and the Vessel’s Master
is to ensure that the correct and safe procedures are understood and implemented for all
back deck work.
Those working on the back deck during operations are reminded that:
• Coveralls should be worn
• Non-slip safety footwear is to be worn
• Lifejackets are to be worn by anyone near any opening in the guard railing or
bulwarks, or when outboard of either of these
• Nobody should be on the back deck alone
• Hard Hats to be worn when items are being lifted.
