Irrespective of the arrangements provided to prevent slips and falls, it is
essential that personnel use the prescribed walkways and keep them
clear and free of spillages. Shore personnel and visitors should also use
the prescribed areas.

The risk of trips and slips is significantly higher when using access
ladders and companionways. Good design and construction will help to
prevent accidents of this nature. Trip hazards, such as high plate edges

Where the design cannot be modified, trip hazards should be clearly
marked or highlighted with contrasting paint.

26.2.3 Personal Hygiene

In view of the danger to health that may arise from prolonged contact with
oil, personal hygiene is most important. Wherever possible, direct skin
ึ
contact with oil or with oily clothing should be avoided.

26.2.4 Clothing Made of Synthetic Materials
Experience has shown that clothing made from synthetic material does
not give rise to any significant electrostatic hazard under conditions
normally encountered on tankers (see Section 3.3.7).

However, the tendency for synthetic material to melt and fuse together
when exposed to high temperatures leads to a concentrated heat source
which causes severe damage to body tissue. Clothing made of such
material is therefore not considered suitable for persons who may be
exposed to flame or hot surfaces in the course of their duties.

26.3 The Ship/Shore Safety Check-List

26.3.1 General

The responsibility and accountability for the safe conduct of operations
while a ship is at a terminal are shared jointly between the ship’s Master

commence, the Master, or his representative, and the Terminal
Representative should:
Agree in writing on the transfer procedures, including the maximum
loading or unloading rates.

Agree in writing on the action to be taken in the event of an
emergency during cargo or ballast handling operations.
