Safer UK ports
Thousands of workers at UK ports are set to benefit from higher safety standards as with the recent launch of an updated Port Marine Safety Code.
The revised Code – and the accompanying Guide to Good Practice – are designed to promote safety through greater transparency of roles, responsibilities and legal obligations for the industry.
Port of London Authority chief harbour master, David Snelson, said: “The Port Marine Safety Code is the cornerstone of UK harbour authorities’ operations…The revision to the Code brings a consistent template to this important safety tool, which can be scaled up or down to suit large ports like London or smaller harbours like Fowey. It’s importance can’t be overstated.”
