FRANCE: an interactive video for safety on board fishing vessels

Home > The news of EUROGIP and occupational risks in Europe > FRANCE: an interactive video for safety on board fishing vessels

The “Institut maritime de prévention” (IMP), supported by the  CNPMEM (maritime fisheries and marine farming Committee), has launched an interactive video on safety at work on board fishing vessels. It is aimed at professional sailors, teachers and students at maritime schools, and all those involved in risk prevention in the maritime environment.

The video puts the viewer in the shoes of Théo, a young fisherman who has just joined a trawler. During this outing at sea, Théo is faced with four high-risk work situations: keeping watch on the bridge, turning the trawl, reeling in and cleaning the engine room. At each stage, Théo has to choose between two actions to avoid an accident. The viewer must guide Théo to help him make the right decision.
