Posted By Pat Burns MIOSH, RSP - SpDipEM - MIQA Christopher Not sure where you are based, however I oversee work experience pupils when they visit our ships for their work experience. As well as the requirements of HSG 165 we also had to have the local council visit our premises to conduct an audit of our safety management system both ashore and onboard ships. I also work with Careers Scotland (Inverclyde) taking the details from the risk assessment finding to develop a job description to ensure that we only get candidates that meet with our specific requirements. We also have to provide a copy of a risk assessment to Careers Scotland as well as our young persons assessment. Young persons wishing to visit us for work experience are interviewed prior to coming on site to confirm that they are suitable for work in our environment as some have applied for a position without holding the pre-requisite skills.
