Message from G2 Ocean: |
“We in G2 Ocean work with stevedores all over the world. By sharing lessons learned on safety between companies and ports, we believe we can reduce the number of incidents and personal injuries in our industry. |
It is part of G2 Ocean’s desired safety culture to always seek and share insights on safety. We thank all stevedore companies who have signed up for our monthly Safety Bulletin! |
All our vessels receive a copy. The crew work closely together with the stevedores in port, and the topics are relevant also for them. |
The bulletin is also sent to the G2 Ocean Port Captains. They are exposed to the same hazards as stevedores and can make a difference where it really matters; at the “sharp end” during cargo operations. |
Each bulletin is a 2-pager focusing on a specific safety topic. There are no obligations on the receiver, but we encourage you to distribute it among your employees. We acknowledge that there is a variety of commodities and work practices, so occasionally you will receive bulletins that are not relevant for your workplace. Descriptions of incidents will always be fully anonymised. |
This edition is about intervention, a safety behaviour we want to see more of! A person showed leadership and stopped the crane operations, when he noticed that the crane wire rope was rubbing against the ship structure. |
As we have many readers in Brazil, this bulletin and all future bulletins will be translated to Portuguese. |
Como temos muitos leitores no Brasil, todos os boletins futuros serão traduzidos para português.” |
We are grateful to G2 Ocean for providing details and for raising awareness. We acknowledge their commitment to sharing learning to benefit others. |
