Commercial diving involves the use of specialized equipment, including diving hats, to conduct underwater work. There are instances where companies may create fake certifications and air samples to mislead clients, particularly for navy and army corps projects. Contractors might manipulate quality control test results to gain unfair advantages, such as financial incentives or to avoid production delays. They may also mishandle quality control samples, submitting photocopies instead of originals or altering sample labels without proper oversight. Investigations into these practices can include various legal actions, such as criminal and civil investigations, and may uncover serious offenses like fraud and bribery. It's crucial to differentiate between high-pressure and low-pressure air samples in this context, as they serve different purposes. Some may even consider modifying air compressors for diving use, but this raises significant safety and compliance https://lnkd.in/etbs9f8h NAVFAC_ML_IG@navy.mil ceig@usace.army.mil

DO YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY IS IN DEBRIEFS? One of the many things that we teach in the HFID: Level 1 Webinar series is Psychological Safety in Diving. We've also written many blogs on the topic to boost the knowledge available to you. "The Human Diver uses a framework that was developed some time ago based on personal experience from aviation, from Robert Teschner (USAF Top Gun graduate and ex-boss of a F-22 squadron), Werner Naef (a good friend from NZ), and Amy Edmondson (expert on psychological safety). The structure defines what we were supposed to do, creates a psychologically safe environment by the debrief leader talking about something that didn’t personally go to plan or where they made a mistake or ‘drifted’, then covers the pre-dive logistics, planning, briefing, then the learning from both individual and team perspectives, and the finally identifies what needs to change post-debrief. This all sits under the acronym DEBrIEF. The ‘r’ is intentionally small because the review of the timeline doesn’t normally contribute to the team or individual learning." https://buff.ly/3KDhFud The HFID: Level 1 Webinar is a 10 week LIVE course that allows for interactive learning for all booked on. The next session starts on October 6th or October 8th depending on your location.

It is important to stay focused when operating a vessel! Hazards, swimmers, vessels and marine life can all appear instantly, so boaters must be prepared to handle those situations. #USCG #CoastGuard #USCGAux #AuxA #GoCoastguard #semperparatus

Are seafarers truly able to relax during shore leave, or is there a lingering pressure to return to the ship at any moment for emergencies? In a recent discussion with Chief Mate Nikolai Sozinov, he highlighted that many seafarers find it challenging to unwind even on shore leave. Moreover, transitioning from the onboard mindset to family life can be mentally straining for some seafarers and in particular, officers. What are your thoughts on how seafarers cope with this transition from life at sea to life on shore? #seafarer #seafarers #merchantnavy #shipping #crew #career #seaman #captain #officers #wellness
