Community-Based Safety Training for the Mid-Atlantic Fishing Industry

• Personal Author:

• Description:
  Fishing Partnership Support Services improved fishing vessel safety for commercial fishermen by promoting safety training information and providing opportunities to learn essential lifesaving skills. The training courses include Safety & Survival, Drill Conductor Certification, Fishing Vessel Stability, and CPR/First Aid/AED. Courses and curriculums are accepted by the U.S. Coast Guard through the Alaska Marine Safety Education Association, the American Heart Association, or other organizations. Through hands-on training, commercial fishermen learn and apply the skills they need as first responders to fires, flooding, man overboard, catastrophic injuries, hypothermia, and other life-threatening emergencies at sea. Trainings were held in New Jersey and are planned throughout the Mid-Atlantic for subsequent years. [Description provided by NIOSH]
