1. ICHCA Member G2 Ocean, latest Safety Bulletin - The right angle
|
|
The latest edition of G2 Ocean’s Safety Bulletins can be found on the link below:
|
|
|
"This edition of our Safety Bulletin is about lifting angles. They can quite easily be observed in port, but in all three incidents described in this bulletin operations were not stopped, despite the unsafe lifting angles of the slings. By sharing insights about unsafe lifting angles, we can reduce the number of dropped lifts and injuries."

5. Updated version released of "Prevention of Pest Contamination of Containers": Joint Industry Guidelines for the Cleaning of Containers
|
|
Every year, 250 million containers are transported across the world with food, clothes, electronics and other goods we all need.
|
While crucial for the smooth functioning of the global supply chain, containers and their cargoes can also harbour and transfer contaminating pests. All parties in the supply chain have a shared responsibility for stopping the spread of pests by keeping cargo and containers clean, and the Prevention of Pest Contamination of Containers: Joint Industry Guidelines for the Cleaning of Containers provide easy-to-use best practices to help everyone do their part. For this update, ICHCA was welcomed as a new partner together with BIC, COA, IICL and WSC.
