The SafeSpace Project
We support SafeSpace:
Shouldn’t your organisation’s logo be here?
SafeSpace is a free project to reduce the unacceptable toll upon seafarers of confined space hazards. It aims to bring together those in the industry with an active and passionate commitment to safety to mount an assault on a phenomenon that costs too many seafarers their lives every year. SafeSpace is not about what the IMO, or any other organisation or company can do or should do, it’s about what we ourselves can do to make change happen. Your task is to commit to doing something, right now. It doesn’t matter how small. Join the SafeSpace project by sending an email to safespace@maritimeaccident.org or fill in the membership form here.
Working together we can make the difference. Let’s make a dent in the deaths.
