Industry Investment: $8K
Objective:
In an effort to reduce the occurrence of hazardous conditions and unsafe practices throughout the shipbuilding industry, the Safety/Health Action Committee (SHAC) spearheaded the development and launching of a new low maintenance, limited-access information sharing website. The site allows authorized shipyard users to anonymously upload and share reports detailing instances of near-misses or actual accidents resulting in equipment damage and/or personnel injury without attribution. This information sharing focuses on safety procedures and is intended to allow shipyards to learn from one another on industry best practices and lessons learned. In addition to submitting reports on new incidents, users can also anonymously comment on reports previously submitted to the network.
Key Deliverables:
Request Final Report from NSRP – Limited Distribution authorized to the U.S. shipbuilding and repair industry and NSRP ASE Program representatives
