Port work is still considered an occupation with very high accident rates. This essential code of practice, intended to replace both the second edition of the ILO Code of Practice on Safety and Health in Dock Work (1977) and the ILO Guide to Safety and Health in Dock Work (1976), provides valuable advice and assistance to all those charged with the management, operation, maintenance and development of ports and their safety. Offering many detailed technical illustrations and examples of good practice, the provisions of this code cover all aspects of port work where goods or passengers are loaded or unloaded to or from ships. It is not limited to international trade but applies equally to domestic operations, including those on inland waterways. New topics are: traffic and vehicular movements of all types; activities on shore and on ship; amended levels of lighting provision; personal protective equipment; ergonomics; provisions for disabled persons; and the specific handling of certain cargoes, for example logs, scrap metal and dangerous goods.

Over £500 million is spent on coastal and maritime construction in the UK every year. This work is particularly hazardous due to the hostile environment and uncertainty caused by the combination of storms, waves, currents and tides. At present, there is little health and safety related guidance available to assist coastal/maritime clients, designers, contractors and other stakeholders to ensure this work is undertaken in a safe manner. The CDM Regulations, amongst others regulations, require these parties to consider and assess construction risks.

These guidelines have been prepared by the International Labour Office in order to assist employers and national organisations with practical advice on implementing and improving occupational safety and health (OSH) management systems, in order to reduce work-related injuries, occupational ill health and diseases and unsafe working conditions. The guidelines may be applied on two levels: they provide a national OSH framework for legal and voluntary regulatory standards; and encourage the integration of OSH management principles with overall policy management at the organisational level.

This Code of Practice, developed jointly by the International Labour Office and the International Maritime Organization, contains a guidance framework for the formulation and implementation of security strategies and the identification of potential security risks. Aimed at governments, employers and workers, it is intended to promote a common approach to port security amongst Member states. The guidelines deal with a variety of issues including security roles, tasks and measures to deter, detect and respond to unlawful acts against ports serving international traffic and maritime operations, as well as considering security awareness and training. Practical examples of a port security assessment and a port security plan are also included. This code follows, where possible, the practice and principles identified in the IMO's ISPS Code and acts as a valuable, complementary guidance document to it, by extending consideration of port security beyond the area of the port facility into the whole port.
