2. ICHCA Member G2 Ocean, latest safety bulletin - Getting the job done
|
|
This edition of our Safety Bulletin is about stevedores being faced with a very unusual challenge. “Getting the job done” is part of the work ethos in most ports, and stevedores rightfully take pride in that. But responsive and innovative action has to fully consider safety.
|
We are grateful to G2 Ocean for providing details and for raising awareness. We acknowledge their commitment to sharing learning to benefit others.

3. ICHCA Australia & Thomas Miller address battery fire risk management in Australasian Marine Surveyors publication
|
|
Peter van Duyn, Master Mariner and Director of International Cargo Handling Co-ordination Association (Australia) and Marcus Johns, Managing Director, Thomas Miller each have an article in the March 2024 edition of Shipshape the magazine of the Australasian Institute of Marine Surveyors.
|
Both address the fire risks associated with lithium batteries, with Peter’s article entitled “At sea lithium-ion battery incidents are on the rise” and Marcus’ “Lithium batteries white paper”. Peter considers if the current lithium battery categorisation in the IMDG Code – Class 9 Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods – is fit for purpose. Marcus examines the risk of transporting lithium-ion batteries and whether they pose a threat to the maritime supply chain.

Powered by ICHCA member the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) and supporting organisations, #GLAD2024 is now a widely celebrated day where manufacturers, suppliers, and end users are among those that share material that promotes safe and high quality load lifting.
