Book Description
Port work is still considered an occupation with very high accident rates. This essential code of practice, intended to replace both the second edition of the ILO Code of Practice on Safety and Health in Dock Work (1977) and the ILO Guide to Safety and Health in Dock Work (1976), provides valuable advice and assistance to all those charged with the management, operation, maintenance and development of ports and their safety. Offering many detailed technical illustrations and examples of good practice, the provisions of this code cover all aspects of port work where goods or passengers are loaded or unloaded to or from ships. It is not limited to international trade but applies equally to domestic operations, including those on inland waterways. New topics are: traffic and vehicular movements of all types; activities on shore and on ship; amended levels of lighting provision; personal protective equipment; ergonomics; provisions for disabled persons; and the specific handling of certain cargoes, for example logs, scrap metal and dangerous goods.

Book Description
Notes that protection of the safety and health of workers should always have the highest priority and should therefore be part of any management system. Argues that this also applies to the port industry, since the millions of tons of cargoes transported by sea every year have to be handled in ports the world over. Shows that the International Labour Organization (ILO) has adopted three instruments which provide the standards to be observed by governments, employers and workers to ensure the safety and health of personnel working in the port environment. These are the: Occupational Safety and Health (Dock Work) Convention, 1979 (No. 152), Occupational Safety and Health (Dock Work) Recommendation, 1979 (No. 160), and Safety and health in ports, ILO code of practice (2005). Presents the generic port audit manual, which aims to assist local auditors or port personnel in identifying the strengths, weaknesses and gaps in the existing port regulations/policies, practices in the handling and transport of dangerous cargoes, human resource development/training and emergency response planning.
