Development of an Accident
•Hazard/s
•A composition or component of danger.
•Examples:
•Oily rag
•Problematic crew
•Unearthed ullaging device
•Danger

46. At sea 16th March 2008
On 10 March 2008 Catering Boy was cleaning floors in the
accommodation. For this purpose he mixed a cleaning agent
containing Natrium hypochlorite solution with hydrochloric
acid, causing chemical fumes to form.
During the night from 10th to 11th March, the eyes of catering
boy started to itch and turned out to be red in the morning.
Later on the 11th March he reported to the 2nd Officer, who
gave him Terramycin N eye ointment for treatment.
46
47. On 12th March catering boy reported the incident to the
master who ordered to flush his eyes with water, to apply wet
eye pads and continue the treatment with Terramycin N.
Upon arrival in Dublin, being the next port, on 17th March
2008 he will see a doctor.
On investigation by the Master what happened, he discovered
the erroneous mixing of the cleaning agents.
The text on the plastic bottles holding the cleaning agents and
the hydrochloric acid turned out to be in Dutch only. (as both
products were of Dutch makers)
47
48. 48
On the holder of the cleaning agent a clear warning was [placed
(in Dutch) never to mix it with any other cleaning liquid.
Needless to say that mixing it with hydrochloric acid was
extremely dangerous.
On questioning the catering boy he turned out not to be aware
of that and he also was not aware of what hydrochloric acid
really is and of the dangers of it.
The catering boy did not wear rubber of plastic chemical
resistant gloves and eye protection when he handled the
hydrochloric acid

Material Data Sheet
56. Toxic and other hazardous substances and products
should be used and stored in such a way that users
and others are safeguarded against accidents, injuries
or particular discomfort.
A record (product data sheet) should, when
obtainable, be kept on board, available to all users,
containing sufficient information to determine the
degree of the danger posed by the substances.
If possible, the substance should be stored in the
original packaging or in another correspondingly
labeled packaging that cannot give rise to confusion.
Such substances must be stored in a locked, well-
ventilated room.
56
57. 57
Chemicals should always be handled with extreme care, protection
should be worn and the manufacturer's instructions closely followed.
Particular attention should be paid to protecting eyes. Some cleaning
agents, such as caustic soda and bleach, are chemicals and may burn
the skin.
A chemical from an unlabelled container should never be used.
Exposure to certain substances such as mineral oils, natural solvents
and chemicals, including domestic cleaning agents and detergents, may
cause dermatitis.
Suitable gloves should be worn when using such substances and the
owner should provide suitable barrier creams which may help to protect
the skin.
The IMO/WHO/ILO Medical First Aid Guide should be consulted for
accidents involving chemicals.

INTRODUCTION
61. ◦ Hazard/s, Danger and Accident are dependent of each
other.
◦ By eliminating the source, accident can be prevented.
◦ Hazard is the source, therefore if one eliminates hazard/s,
a SAFE CONDITION is achieved.
61
62. In some instance, not all hazards can be
eliminated, but can be controlled.
For example:
In a tanker vessel loaded with cargo, the cargo
is a hazard itself, we apply measures to this
cargo by introducing inert gas in the tank to
prevent fire or explosion.
62
63. 63
What can be done to address these risks?
• develop a list of countermeasures that can be used to prevent
or reduce the consequences associated with the hazards
or potential accidents.
Effective countermeasures are those that break the causal chain prior
to the accident occurring.

67. The permit-to-work system is a method whereby
safety procedures are specified in writing on a
form issued to seafarers who are entrusted with
a task which may involve work of a hazardous
nature.
67
68. Hot Work Permit
Cold Work Permit
Working Aloft Permit
Enclosed Space Entry Permit
68
69. 69
Hot work is any work involving welding or
burning, and other work including certain
drilling and grinding operations, electrical work
and the use of non-intrinsically safe electrical
equipment, which might produce an ignition
source.
A hot work permit is a document issued by a
responsible person permitting specific hot work
to be done during a specific time interval in a
defined area.
72. 72
Cold work is work which cannot create a source of ignition.
That means that cold work relates to any work in hazardous or
dangerous area which will not involve generation of
temperature condition likely to be of sufficient intensity to
cause ignition of combustible gases, vapors or liquid within of
adjacent to the area involved.
Examples:
• Blanking / de-blanking
• Disconnecting / connecting pipe
• Spray painting
• Brush / Roller painting or priming
• Other chemical applications
74. 74
Working aloft is defined as any work above normal reach and
where personnel are faced with risk or falling more than 2
meters. Typical areas are the superstructure, funnel, masts,
tanks. Engine room and the ship’s side using a stage, bosun’s
chair, Jacob’s ladder or lifting up personnel with the safety
harness in for example pump room or engine room emergency
escape.
Falling when performing work aloft can cause serious accidents. If
proper safety precautions are taken, such work can be performed
without accidents.
76. 76
An enclosed space is one with restricted access that is not
subject to continuous ventilation and in which the atmosphere
may be hazardous due to the presence of hydrocarbon gas,
toxic gases, inert gas or oxygen deficiency.
Entry Enclose Space permit is a document issued by a
responsible person permitting entry into a space or
compartment during a specific time interval.
91. If one or more of the machinery sub system
fails or be damage, the vessel will not be
able to move. This is considered vital system
in any ship with regards to safety.
91
95. Electrical Power is vital for most functions
onboard and a ship without power supply is a
dead ship in the same situation as a vessel
without steering
95
98. Fire hazard often develops in a machinery
space because of small tolerances between
heat source and ignitable materials, poor
maintenance and bad housekeeping.

A.DEFINING THE PROBLEM
What areas will this risk assessment evaluate?
• define the scope of your assessment ( in the time you’ve set aside)
1. QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
• Do you have to look at every aspect of your operation?
• Do you want to know where to get started in putting your
greatest effort and resources in managing environmental
or safety issues?
106. 106
B.IDENTIFYING HAZARDS AND
POTENTIAL ACCIDENTS
- get into more specific aspects of the assessment
1. QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
• What can go wrong?
• Develop a list of hazards and related accidents that could occur
• Do not limit yourself to only those accidents that have historically occurred.
107. 107
C.ASSIGNING FREQUENCY / LIKELIHOOD
How often will it happen?
• rate the likelihood of the hazard leading to an accident.
• Decide how frequently each of the hazards and undesirable events listed
in step C could become reality and cause harm.
108. Assign a rating of If the frequency is
1 REMOTE = Might occur once in a lifetime
2 OCCASIONAL = Might occur every five to ten years
3 LIKELY = Might occur every one to five years
4 PROBABLE = Might occur yearly
5 FREQUENT = Might occur more than once per year
108
109. 109
D.ASSIGNING CONSEQUENCES
What is the impact ?
• rate the impact of the hazard leading to an accident
1. QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
• How much damage would it cause?
111. 111
E.DETERMINING RISK PRIORITY
Where should efforts be focused ?
• determine the risk priority score for each hazard
The risk priority score, located where the two ratings intersect will
fall into one of the following four general groups:
• (VH) = Very High
• (H) = High
• (M) = Moderate
• (L) = Low
116. Swinging of the lifeboat on the ship side.
Accidental release of hooks.
Accidental breaking of the boat falls while being
lowered.
Releasing of bowsing tackles.
Releasing of tricing pendants

tonnage and above and every
ship which is certified to carry 15
persons or more, shall carry a
garbage management plan to be
followed by the crew. The Plan
shall provide written procedures
for collecting, storing, processing
and disposing of garbage,
including the use of equipment
on board. In addition the plan
shall designate the person in
charge of carrying out the plan.
