Presentation Topic

Diving Safety in Focus: Implementing a Diving Safety Management System in Compliance with the 2024 IMO – International Code of Safety for Diving Operations

 

Overview: Starting January 1, 2024, the revised IMO diving safety code will mandate that organizations conducting diving operations from ships have Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) management systems tailored to the unique risks and controls of occupational diving. Ship operators will also need to adapt vessel Safety Management Systems (SMS) to incorporate provisions for conducting safe diving activities.

Anthony Greenwood’s presentation will provide valuable insights into the goal-based rules of the revised safety code and offer guidance on implementing a comprehensive OH&S management system to achieve these goals.

Learning Objectives:

  • Gain awareness and familiarization with the new IMO Code of Safety for Diving Operations.
  • Understand the expected impact and demands that organizations will need to fulfill to comply with the safety management system objectives of the code.
  • Clarify the roles of various stakeholders in diving operations, including national maritime administrations, vessel operators, diving organizations, class societies, and clients of diving, in meeting the code’s requirements.

Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your knowledge of diving safety and compliance with the upcoming IMO code changes. We look forward to seeing you there!
