maritime health risk assessment

Maritime health risk assessment is a process used to identify and evaluate potential health hazards faced by crew members and others aboard ships or in port facilities. It involves examining factors like infectious diseases, accidents, environmental exposures, and mental health challenges. By assessing these risks, shipping companies and health professionals can develop strategies to prevent illnesses, manage emergencies, and promote overall well-being in the maritime environment. This proactive approach helps ensure safe, healthy conditions at sea and during port operations.
