Technical Services Information – All UNOLS Vessels

VII. Activities At Sea

I. Safety Considerations

2. Responsibilities of techs, crew, scientists

All scientists are urged to read the UNOLS-RVOC safety manual <http://www.gso.uri.edu/unols/safe_man.html> provided onboard every UNOLS vessel. Safety is our #1 priority, and takes precedence over scientific work. While we strive to maintain a safe environment, it is ultimately up to the individual to watch out for his/her own safety. Unsafe conditions should be brought to the attention of the Marine Tech or a crewmember immediately.
