    GOOD PRACTICE
    ACCESS/HAZARD MARKINGS

    GOOD PRACTICE

    Well-marked hazards Access routes highlighted

    BAD PRACTICE

    Hazards not marked Access routes not marked

    GOOD PRACTICE
    OXY-ACETYLENE
    GOOD PRACTICE

    Oxygen and acetylene stored in separate lockers Reduced risk of fire and explosion

    BAD PRACTICE

    Oxygen and acetylene stored in same locker Increased risk of fire and explosion

    Used together for welding, oxygen and acetylene burn well so why store them together? Think safe and keep them apart.

    GOOD PRACTICE Correct use of harness:

    Provides security against falling Enables use of both hands to complete task

    BAD PRACTICE Not using a harness:

    Increases risk of injury from falling Endangers others working in vicinity

    When working aloft generally, including on the gangway or over the bridgewing as illustrated, safety must be your first consideration

    GOOD PRACTICE
    TWISTLOCKS
    GOOD PRACTICE

    All twistlocks lock one way Easy identification of unlocked containers Reduced risk of cargo loss

    BAD PRACTICE

    Twistlocks lock differently Unable, without close inspection, to determine if locked Increased risk of cargo loss Twistlocks are designed simply to lock containers to the ship and each other why confuse the issue with left and right locking handles? Are you sure your twistlocks are locked?
