Basic Elements4.1 Executive Management Commitment and LeadershipExecutive management commitment and leadership is a pre-condition for an effective SOHSP. Executive managementcommitment and leadership includes, but is not limit
17、ed tointegrating health and safety into the management structure andfabric of the company, developing a health and safety policy,developing health and safety objectives, providing resources toachieve the objectives, defining stewardship responsibilitiesand providing authority to carry out those resp
18、onsibilities, andestablishing accountability for safety and health as a part of jobperformance reviews. Further guidance is provided in AnnexA1.4.2 Employee ParticipationEmployees from all levelsincluding crewmembers, officers, masters, persons in charge,and shoreside personnel should be directly in
19、volved with theSOHSP. Shipboard and shoreside employees should be in-volved in developing, implementing, evaluating, and modify-ing the SOHSP. Employees should also participate in settinghealth and safety objectives and performance criteria. Thisinvolvement might be through employee membership on sa
20、fetycommittees that provide input to management for the develop-ment of safety and health policy, debate and set health andsafety goals, measure and evaluate performance, and recom-mend modifications to the program based on their evaluation.Shoreside and shipboard employees should work together toac
21、hieve safety and health goals. For example, shoreside per-sonnel should participate on vessel safety committees sincetheir decisions affect vessel operations and ultimately thehealth and safety of vessel personnel. In large companies,individual vessel safety committees might submit recommen-dations
22、to an overarching safety committee that evaluates therecommendations and sets policy to apply appropriate recom-mendations to the entire fleet. Further guidance is provided inAnnex A2.4.3 Hazard Anticipation, Identification, Evaluation andControlThe core function of any health and safety programis p
23、revention. Health and safety hazards including fire, reac-tivity, and chemical and physical hazards, need to be antici-pated and prevented from occurring. Hazards and unsafeoperating procedures need to be identified and addressed sothey will not endanger employees or the public and will notdamage th
24、e vessel, cargo, or third party property. Potentialhazards should be systematically anticipated, identified, evalu-ated, and controlled. Tools such as job hazard analysis,industrial hygiene exposure assessments, and risk assessment/management methodologies enable the evaluation and controlof hazards
25、. Further guidance is provided in Annex A3.4.4 TrainingEmployees should receive training appropri-ate for their duties and responsibilities so that they may worksafely and not endanger their shipmates or the public. Inaddition, employees who have specific health and safetyresponsibilities (generally
26、 supervisors with responsibility forthe safety of others, but also nonsupervisors who are assignedto safety committees or as crew member representatives)should receive training to enable them to carry out their healthand safety program responsibilities. Further guidance is pro-vided in Annex A4.4.5
27、Record KeepingCompany records sufficient to dem-onstrate the effectiveness of the health and safety programshould be maintained. Data that enables trend or patternanalysis for root causes is particularly desirable. For example,results of audits that evaluate effectiveness of the safety andhealth man
28、agement system should be maintained. Records thatindicate industrial hygiene exposure assessments have beenconducted and appropriate controls have been implementedshould be maintained. Current job safety analyses and corre-sponding standard operating procedures with safe work prac-tices should be do
29、cumented. Injury and illness data should bemaintained to enable the identification of trends and patternsthat associate the injury or illness with a common cause, whichcan be addressed. Training topics, lesson outlines, and attend-ees should be documented. Where appropriate, such recordsshould permi
30、t evaluation of the program on individual vesselsas well as across an entire fleet. Further guidance is provided inAnnex A5.4.6 Contract or Third Party PersonnelWhen contract orthird party personnel are on board to perform work, vesselpersonnel should provide information regarding potential haz-ards
31、 on the vessel that may affect the contract or third partypersonnel. Potential hazards related to the work conducted bycontract or third party personnel should be provided to thevessel owner/operator and/or the master/person in charge. Eachemployer should provide appropriate information regardingves
32、sel and work hazards to their own employees. For example,exchange of information on chemical hazards might be accom-plished by exchanging appropriate material safety data sheets(MSDS), then each employer can inform their own employeesof the hazards identified in the MSDS. Further guidance isprovided
33、 in Annex A6.4.7 Fatality, Injury, Illness, and Incident InvestigationPersonnel injuries, occupational illnesses, and “near miss”incidents should be promptly investigated. The current incidentand other similar occurrences should be analyzed to identifythe primary (root) cause and any contributing fa
34、ctors. Theinvestigation report, setting forth primary cause, contributingfactors, and corrective measures should be presented to man-agement. Followup action that specifically addresses the re-ports recommendations for corrective action should be under-taken and documented. Further guidance is provi
35、ded in AnnexA7.4.8 Systematic Program Evaluation and ContinuousImprovementMaintaining an effective health and safety pro-gram is an ongoing process. The SOHSP should have systemsfor detecting, reporting, and correcting nonconformities to theprogram. Some type of “formalized” evaluation should also b
36、econducted on a periodic basis consistent with other aspects ofthe vessels management plan. The evaluation should deter-mine whether the SOHSP is appropriate for the vessel and itsoperations, that actual practices are consistent with the pro-grams and procedures in the SOHSP, and that the SOHSP isef
37、fective. Comparison of data and records (refer to Annex A5,Record Keeping) to performance objectives and criteria (referF2039 00 (2012)2to Annex A1, Section A1.3, health and safety objectives) canprovide important indicators of the effectiveness of the SOHSP.Further guidance is provided in Annex A8.
38、5. Keywords5.1 health; safetyANNEXES(Mandatory Information)A1. MANAGEMENT COMMITMENT AND LEADERSHIPA1.1 Health and safety programs are most effective whenthey are integrated into the management structure of a com-pany, rather than treated as an “add on” program. Examples ofintegrated health and safe
39、ty efforts include:A1.1.1 Developing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs),written to the education level of the person who must followthe SOP, that integrate safe work practices and basic opera-tional functions,A1.1.2 Making design review by qualified health and safetypersonnel an element of the acq
40、uisition procedures, andA1.1.3 Making consultation with qualified health and safetypersonnel a part of the process when making changes tooperations.A1.2 Executive management sets the tone for the entireSOHSP through their policy regarding health and safety.Examples of values that can be stated and c
41、ommitments thatcan be made in company policy include:A1.2.1 A statement that the company will make every effortto provide a safe and healthy workplace and that workingsafely is a condition of employment,A1.2.2 Statements that convey how important each crewmember is to the vessel as a fellow worker a
42、nd as a companyresource:A1.2.2.1 “The basic safety policy of this company is that notask is so important that an employee must violate a safety ruleor put himself or herself at risk of injury or illness in order toget it done.”,A1.2.3 A written commitment to provide resources neces-sary to implement
43、 the health and safety program could also beincluded in the policy statement, andA1.2.4 Management can demonstrate commitment to thesafety and health policies through word and action. Forexample, managers visiting vessels should follow safety rulesand standard operating procedures, including use of
44、hearingprotection, safety glasses, safety shoes, protective clothing, andso forth.A1.3 Setting and attaining health and safety objectivesdemonstrates a companys commitment to improvement ofhealth and safety performance. Objectives provide a targetagainst which those who are responsible for health an
45、d safetymay measure their progress. Quantifiable objectives are desir-able since often, “What gets measured gets done.” (Refer toAnnex A8, Systematic Program Evaluation, for examples ofperformance measures and an overall program audit.) Healthand safety objectives may include:A1.3.1 Eliminate lost t
46、ime incidents,A1.3.2 Report “near miss” incidents or problems, evaluate,and if appropriate, implement changes to prevent a moreserious incident or accident in the future,A1.3.3 Develop and implement a program of evaluationsthrough drills and other means (for example, simulators) toensure that person
47、nel are competent to carry out their duties,A1.3.4 Improve the health and safety program by review-ing, considering, and implementing appropriate publishedindustry practices and consensus standards rather than relyingon the imposition of new regulatory standards. Examples ofconsensus standards to co
48、nsider include, but are not limited to:ANSI Z41-1991, ANSI Z87.1-1989, ANSI Z88.2-1992,ANSI Z89.1-1986, ANSI Z244.11982 (R1993), ANSI/ASAS3.18-1979 (R1993), ANSI/ASA S3.44-1996, ANSI/AWSZ49.1-1994, ANSI Z4.1-1986, NFPA 1991-2000, NFPA 1992-2000, NFPA 306-1997, IMO A.864 (20), and IMO A.468(XII).A1.3
49、.5 Complete periodic comprehensive (or area-specific)hazard review,A1.3.6 Reduce exposure levels to airborne vapors to accept-able levels through appropriate controls,A1.3.7 Complete annual respiratory fit testing on schedule,A1.3.8 Develop and implement acute toxic exposure proce-dures addressing first aid procedures, obtaining additionalemergency medical assistance, and appropriate medical sur-veillance tests (for example, S-phenylmercapturic acid in urinefollowing a potential benzene overexposure), andA1.3.9 Develop and implement an occupational healthmedical sur
