Carbon monoxide problems when unloading car ferries
Koolmonoxyde-problemen bij het lossen van autoschepen [en holandés]
Results of carbon monoxide monitoring carried out on 5 car ferries. CO concentrations in the ship holds occasionally exceeded the TLV of 50ppm and reached 200 and 250ppm on ships with inadequate ventilation. The carboxyhaemoglobin levels determined in 89 dock workers were proportional to the CO concentrations and reached 12.6% in one case. Smoking during working hours had a noticeable influence on carboxyhaemoglobin levels. Carbon monoxide would not be a problem on car ferries if ventilation were adequate and if car queuing were avoided.

Safety in unloading sulfuric acid from barges
La sécurité dans le déchargement des péniches d'acide sulfurique. [en francés]
After some brief remarks on the hazards of sulfuric acid, the author stresses the importance of the safety equipment: the hose between the receiving pipe from the factory and the barge must be flexible enough to take up the latter's movements (pitching, rising as emptying progresses); the fixed pipe may be rigid but must have a minimum of bends, valves and connections, and it is essential to provide a protective cover over joints between hose and valve sockets; the tanks must be protected by an overflow device, or an audible or optical alarm system. The technical safety measures must be completed by personal protective equipment and staff training.

Effect of climatic, geographic and occupational factors on the body's immunobiological reactivity
Vlijanie kompleksa klimato-geografičeskih i professional'nyh faktorov na sostojanie immunobiologičeskoj reaktivnosti organizma [en ruso]
Immunobiological changes found in seafarers employed on board ships operating in tropical areas can be the source of numerous diseases. Measurements of non-specific immunity factors (complement, lysozyme, phagocytes) were made on albino rats carried on board a bulk carrier and a methane tanker, as well as on laboratory control animals. The animals which travelled in the tropical areas showed a distinct inhibition of immunological factors and an increase in the neutrophil phagocytic activity and in the number of plasmatic globules in the lymphatic mesentary ganglia.

Pressure-relieving systems for marine cargo bulk liquid containers.
Report of a Panel on Cargo Containment set up to review existing equipment for pressure relief of containers for the marine transport of bulk liquids and to recommend improved pressure-relief systems. The report reviews the various causes of overpressure (fire, chemical reaction in cargo, insulation loss and improper operation), considers existing formulae for calculating the necessary relief capacity and proposes a new formula for the capacity required for venting vapour. The sizing of pressure-relief valves, relief-vent location and vent-system design are also dealt with. A safety checklist for evaluation of terminals and related facilities is included. Numerous appendices give illustrations of vessel types requiring relief valves, formualae for calculating vapour flow in systems and for sizing pressure-relief valves, etc. Recommendations for further study are made.

The older dockworker - Aspects of his cardiorespiratory condition
De oudere havenwerker - Aspecten van zijn cardiorespiratoire conditie [en holandés]
M.D. thesis describing a study carried out to determine whether or not older dockers can carry out heavy work until their retirement at 65. The author examined 578 dockers aged 55 or over and analysed the health records of 503 of them. The examination was focused on biophysical parameters, biochemical determinations and exercise tests. The results, which were statistically processed, are reproduced and discussed. The electrocardiograms taken at rest and during exercise proved to be reliable indicators of impaired cardiorespiratory function.

Cocoa beans: An unloading hazard for longshoremen.
17 longshoremen unloading cocoa beans from an inadequately ventilated ship's hold complained within 20 min of starting work of nausea, eye irritation, chest pain and shortness of breath. It is suspected that the environment to which they were exposed had a low oxygen level, a high CO2 concentration and contained ethyl alcohol and acetic acid as a result of fermentation of the beans. All 17 men were hospitalised; case histories are given. All but one with persistent complete heart block recovered uneventfully. The role of hypoxia and hypercapnia in the cardiac disorders is discussed.

Sideloaders - A case study in the port industry.
An evaluation of a self-loading lorry which both transports and stacks containers in ports, from the aspects of internal and external visibility and cab layout. It is concluded that the vehicle has a restricted view to the rear, and that the design and position of the cab can demand extreme and uncomfortable postures on the part of the driver. Anomalies in the cab control and display layouts are also briefly discussed, with a view to standardisation and reduction of the driver's workload. The chief problem appears to stem from the compromises dictated by the nature of this dual-purpose vehicle.

CIS 76-1437 Always on the alert - is it possible?
Immer aufpassen - kann man das? [en alemán]
The importance of inland waterway transport as a modern means of communication is presented in an introduction. Accidents illustrating the main hazard, that of falling overboard, are shown. Many bargees believe that this hazard can be overcome by constant cirumspection, but the frequency of drowning deaths tells against this. Falls overboard can be prevented by appropriate design of barges and railings, and measures to prevent slipping. A most important measure during work on deck is wearing of a special life-jacket which automatically inflates on contact with the water and keeps the wearer's head above the surface.

A study of the medical causes of absence from duty aboard South African merchant ships
A 4.5 year study of medical absence from duty on a number of merchant vessels (17 at beginning and 28 at end of study) showed 556 instances of absence for 4 or more dasys. Illness accounted for 297 cases and accidents for 259 cases. The average absence for illness and accident was 28 and 34 days respectively. Slightly more working days were lost due to accidents. Hospitalisation was required in 90% of illnesses and 36% of accidents. Appendicitis (of questionable veracity), peptic ulceration, and psychiatric disturbances were amongst the most common causes of incapacity. 40% of accidents occurred on deck and in the cargo holds. Fractures occurred more commonly in the upper limbs, especially the hand. 11% of accidents occurred ashore. Further study is required to elucidate whether the emotional problems encountered are brought to sea by the personnel or are a result of life on board ship. The high incidence of accidents highlights the hazardous nature of the work.

Research on the morbidity of seamen during navigation - Decennial statistics from an Adriatic port
Recherches sur la morbidité chez des gens de mer pendant la navigation - Statistique décennale d'un port de l'Adriatique [en francés]
The rates of morbidity observed were: digestive tract diseases (27.26%), bone and joint diseases (17.03%), occupational accidents (15.3%), respiratory diseases (11.3%). Digestive diseases are more common amongst older workers (over 40 years) working in the Mediterranean; bone and joint diseases are more common in the Mediterranean for the under 40s and are almost non-existent amongst sailors on ocean routes. Respiratory diseases and occupational accidents are more common the Adriatic. The numin theerous recommended preventive measures are aimed at improving working conditions, diet and living conditions for sailors which, the authors state, are particularly arduous in the Mediterranean and Adriatic for the sample under study.

Dock workers' health and working environment
Stuveriarbetarnas hälsa och arbetsmiljö [en sueco]
Report on a series of investigations carried out by various departments of the Swedish Institute of Occupational Health. The medical examination of 301 Swedish dockers showed that 55% of them had low-back complaints. 67 dockers were subjected to physiological tests to elucidate the physical workload. It was found that even light work can be physically exacting due to load peaks and tiring postures. Occupational hygiene investigations at various workplaces disclosed high concentrations of engine exhaust gases and various kinds of dust, high noise level ans and bad lighting. Some industrial trucks and cranes were examined with regard to ergonomic design features. Although the population sample was small, the results suggest that both occupational safety and health and ergonomics in docking need thorough encouragement.
