Working on and around a vessel in a shipyard can be just as hazardous as working aboard a vessel on the open water. Being aware of common hazards can help shipyard workers avoid unnecessary dangers, or even head off accidents before they happen - https://t.co/Db0wu6S523

A failure to keep conditions safe for workers caused this tankerman's injury. We are glad that this maritime worker got the compensation for his injury that he deserved.

A “man overboard” (MOB) emergency can arise at any time, in any maritime setting — the docks, a vessel in port or at sea, or an offshore rig. What are the common causes, and what are some ways to minimize the risks of being involved in a MOB accident? https://t.co/EHi3GHuY3l
