Commercial Fishing Safety Training

J. DZUGAN 该项目将继续为商业渔民提供海岸警卫队所需的培训， 因福尔斯落水和船只损失造成的生命损失。该项目与工作场所的公共卫生非常相关。 商业捕鱼通常被列为第一或第二高风险职业。海岸警卫队要求 每月在大多数近海作业的商业渔船上进行紧急演习。这些演习涵盖了 船员在发生落水、水浸、火灾等紧急情况时的预防和应急反应， 弃船这些紧急情况造成了2000-2015年和过去三年的大多数死亡 几十年演习必须由经过正式培训的应急演习指挥（EDC）进行。作为唯一的 海岸警卫队的供应商在阿拉斯加接受EDC培训，我们打算利用我们丰富的经验和广泛的 在行业和阿拉斯加的农村港口的伙伴关系，以继续提供这种性能为基础， 培训新一代渔民。 在这个项目中，我们将继续举行我们的海岸警卫队接受海上安全教官培训（MSIT） 讲习班，以培训新的港口教官，为渔民提供EDC培训，在自己或附近 渔港 有港口为基础的教练消除了需要前往遥远的农村港口-一个困难，在这些时候。 30年前，阿拉斯加在捕鱼死亡人数上居全国之首，每年有30至40人死亡，这是一个主要的公共卫生问题， 安全问题。然而，通过过去对渔民的EDC和其他安全课程的培训，阿拉斯加 目前，该市的死亡人数在全国四个主要地区中排名第三。年平均死亡人数 都是个位数超过277名渔民在海上紧急情况下幸存下来， 在我们过去的项目中。 该项目还将解决阿拉斯加渔业中造成伤害的主要原因，即慢性肌肉骨骼肌炎。 上肢疾病（MSD）。这些伤害一直是保险索赔的主要原因 根据阿拉斯加渔民基金会的数据，这是一个历史悠久的国家经营的保险池。我们有 为数千名渔业工人提供人体工程学培训的经验。然而，我们打算 将我们的商业捕鱼培训转移到在线可选格式，由于现在和未来的旅行 限制和费用。

PROJECT SUMMARY J. DZUGAN This project will continue the delivery of Coast Guard required training for commercial fishermen to reduce the loss of life due to falls overboard and vessel loss. This project is very relevant to public health in the workplace. Commercial fishing is usually ranked the first or second highest risk occupation. The Coast Guard requires monthly emergency drills on most commercial fishing vessels that work offshore. These drills cover the prevention and emergency response of crew during the emergencies of fall overboard, flooding, fire and abandon ship. These emergencies caused the majority of deaths from 2000-2015 and over the last three decades. The drills must be conducted by a formally trained Emergency Drill Conductor (EDC). As the only provider of Coast Guard Accepted EDC training in Alaska, we intend to use our vast experience and extensive partnerships in the industry and in rural ports of Alaska to continue the availability of this performance based, hands on training to a new generation of fishermen. In this project, we will continue to hold our Coast Guard Accepted Marine Safety Instructor-Training (MSIT) workshops, to train new port based instructors to deliver EDC training to fishermen in their own or nearby fishing ports Having port based instructors eliminates the need to travel to distant rural ports- a difficulty in these times. Alaska led the nation in fishing fatalities 30 years ago with 30 to 40 fatalities a year- a major public health and safety issue. However, in part through the past training of fishermen in EDC and other safety courses, Alaska now has the third lowest number of fatalities out of the four main regions of the nation. Average yearly fatalities in the last 10 years are in single digits. Over 277 fishermen have survived an emergency at sea who have had training in our past projects. This project will also address the main cause of injury in Alaska fisheries, which are chronic Muscular-Skeletal Disorders (MSDs) of the upper extremities. These injuries have been the leading cause of insurance claims according to data from the Alaska Fishermen’s Fund, a long established state run insurance pool. We have experience with delivering in-person ergonomics training to thousands of fish workers. However, we intend to transfer our commercial fishing training to an on-line optional format, due to present and future travel restrictions and costs.
