Abstract: | The next few years are going to be years of very fast change. Time has entered the era of the implement for the safety issue to fisherman. The previous record of an every year mentions the large number increasing in the fishing industry hazardous for fishermen. The main contributors to fatalities are: Inadequate preparation for emergencies Poor vessel maintenance and inadequate safety equipment Lack of awareness of or ignoring stability issues. Many fishermen, while accepting that fishing is dangerous, staunchly defend their independence. Many proposed laws and additional regulation to increase safety have been defeated because fishermen oppose them. Many of the hardships they endure include isolated fishing grounds, high winds, seasonal darkness, very cold water, icing, and shorter fishing seasons, where very long work days are the norm. Fatigue, physical stress, and financial pressures face most environments of fishermen through their careers. The hazardous working conditions faced by fishermen have a strong impact on their safety. There has been a 51 percent decline in the annual fatality rate. |
