OSHA SAFETY OF RO-RO SHIPS IN THE PORT

OSHA je nacionalna javna zdravstvena agencija, ki se ukvarja oziroma zagotavlja varne in zdrave delovne pogoje za delavce. Podaja smernice za varno delo na delovnem mestu v pristaniščih in na ladjah, kot tudi v drugih gospodarskih panogah. Pri delu v pristanišču in na ladji je zelo pomembna varnost, saj lahko hitro pride do raznih poškodb na delovnem mestu. OSHA redno preverja, ali se delodajalci držijo standardov za varnost. Po zahtevah OSHA mora delodajalec svoje zaposlene pravilno usposobiti, tako praktično kot teoretično. Naloge delodajalca so, da poskrbi za pravilno delovno zaščito, usposabljanje, ter da je oprema, s katero delavec dela, odobrena, in da ni poškodovana. Delodajalec mora zagotoviti, da so njegovi zaposleni seznanjeni z vsemi predpisi. Pomembno je, da vsi delavci dobro sodelujejo v ekipi, kot tudi dobro komunicirajo, saj le-to zagotovi varno delovno okolje. Da ne pride do poškodb med operacijami s tovorom, je potrebna konstantna in jasna komunikacija. Med delovnim procesom z upravljanjem tovora morajo vsi udeleženci biti pozorni in poskrbeti za varnost na ladji in na pristanišču.OSHA is a national public health agency that deals with or ensures safe and healthy working conditions for workers.
