FISHING OFF THE SIDE MAY SEEM HARMLESS BUT THESE INCIDENTS REMIND US THAT EATING
SUCH FISH CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS.
YOU MAY THINK YOU KNOW THE TYPE OF FISH YOU ARE CATCHING BUT LOCAL ECOSYSTEMS
CAN PRESENT PARTICULAR PROBLEMS WHICH CAN MAKE THE FISH POISONOUS TO EAT.

WE HAVE RECENTLY PUBLISHED TWO BSAFE CASE STUDIES IN WHICH CREW MEMBERS HAVE
SUSTAINED SERIOUS INJURIES AND, IN ONE TRAGIC CASE, THE CREW MEMBER LOST HIS LIFE.
In one case an AB made a decision to carry out some repairs to a lifeboat. He used a portable ladder to climb
the 4.8m from the deck. The ladder was held by a bosun who was unable to steady the ladder when it slipped
and the AB fell to the deck. The AB was not wearing a harness or a helmet and tragically lost his life.

The second case involved two crew members who were working on a temporary scaffolding tower while
carrying out maintenance on a hold. The scaffolding tower was moved while the crew members remained on it.
Neither of them was wearing a safety harness or using safety lines. The tower fell over and both crew
members fell to the deck, sustaining serious injuries that required many weeks of hospital treatment.
