Seacare Maritime OHS Forum - WA

The Seacare Authority held a special forum on OHS issues in the maritime industry on 16 October 2007 at the Western Australian Maritime Museum, Fremantle.

The forum featured presentations from the key regulators of OHS in the WA maritime environment - AMSA; NOPSA; and the Department of Planning & Infrastructure WA - as well as presentations from an employee perspective and an employer perspective. Participants also took part in round-table discussions on improving OHS in the maritime sector.

The forum was attended by around 70 representatives of Seacare scheme stakeholders and interested parties.
