Description During a vessel's port stay, many different people such as pilots, agents, inspectors, and tankermen require access to the vessel. It is important that gangway, brow, or ladder access points are strong, stable, clean, and well-lit to avoid potential injuries. In this publication, examples are provided of proper access and UNSAFE access.
