ROBLES GARCIA, M.ª Belén; MARQUEZ PADORNO, Paula María; NEIPP LOPEZ, Rosemarie y FARACO ONORBE, Mar. Occupational hazards of the technical staff performing ship sanitation inspections: building-up knowledge and organization skills. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2014, vol.60, n.235, pp.304-312. ISSN 1989-7790. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0465-546X2014000200003.
One of the main focuses of Port Health Authorities in Spain is to help prevent the international spread of diseases. Health teams are responsible for the development of health inspections on ships engaged in international travel, through the implementation of preventative and interventional practices. In this sense, job security is essential for making decisions regarding the safe and effective performance of these tasks. The objective of this paper is to describe some of the elements of risk to whom the technical staff will be exposed meanwhile the whole process and activities of the ship sanitary inspection. It is very important, even mandatory, to begin to assess the problems, through several activities which should include the implementation of a training system about occupational risk prevention to enable the staff with enough knowledge and skills to prevent any new emerging challenges that come, and indeed for those that already exist.
