@ifishconf It was truly a FANTASTIC Conference! It is impressive how many people traveled from around the world but there are obviously so many places we still need to draw people from for #IFISH6.
Did you know: The new TC regulations require Written Safety Procedures for all measures that must be taken to protect persons on board, including measures to avoid ropes, docking lines, nets, and other fishing equipment that may pose a safety hazard?
After an excellent organized conference back home again. Thank you @ifishconf! Working together on safety and health all over the world in the fishing industry! @FISHplatform@Vissersbond
