Managing Health and Safety in Fishing/Управление охраной труда и безопасностью на рыбалке

Издание на английском языке
Internationally the sea fishing sector is recognised worldwide as the most hazardous industry to work in, accounting for significantly higher rates of fatal and/or serious accidents when compared to other sectors such as agriculture or construction. Sadly, each year within the industry the same accidents tend to reoccur often arising from fatigue, poor decision making, taking chances or not following basic precautions such as heeding weather forecasts, wearing Personal Flotation Devices or guarding and maintaining machinery. It is difficult to measure the degree of suffering and hardship that the victims of accidents and their families endure.
