Well I am wondering what there going to bring out next , Since its no longer a case of having FOET / HUET & EBS we now have CA-EBS plus MIST then some clients also want HV certs plus there own on line courses and now
shoulder measurements .
At this rate there be asking you for money for a survival suit ! Its funny as on many of the projects over in Asia you wear full PPE on the chopper " No Hard Hat but Boots and Overalls " Next problem is Slip on boots or Lace up boots .
I think Europe was only Lace up boots but in Australia it was slip on boots .
I think we are in the wrong job guys it should be how to milk extra money out of offshore workers .
The CA-EBS from what I understand is classed as a SUBA device and whole new set of rules have to be followed and at present OPITO have not released guidelines for use in the helicopter training tank, so the old type EBS is still being used.
On a job in Mexico, the client insist on everyone wearing Mexican Safety Boots. They where murder on your feet and of poor quality, I am sure they where both different sizes. I pushed the sole off the boot after only having them for three months. Another guy got threatened with being run off for wearing his UK lace up boots.
Maybe making everyone pay for their food offshore would be the way to go. It would help on the obesity problem offshore. The Armed Forces now have to pay their mess bills despite it being free and part of the wages in the distant past.
