Making its debut as part of the Singapore Safety@Sea Week, the Crew Safety Awareness Workshop is jointly organised by MPA, the Singapore Maritime Academy (SMA), and MPA-Industry Safety Work Groups. This workshop is open to all crew operating in Singapore waters, including harbour craft, regional ferry, and pleasure craft personnel.

Designed to strengthen safety awareness among frontline crew, the workshop features interactive, scenario-based sessions covering a range of topics, from battery fire safety and the proper maintenance, inspection, and donning of personal flotation devices, to emergency drills including jetty jump procedures and lifejacket activation protocols.

This is a hands-on learning experience that equips participants with the practical skills and confidence to respond effectively in real-world situations.

Important notes:

This workshop includes hands-on practical training. Participants will be required to wear life jackets and may take part in emergency drills such as a supervised jetty jump, survival techniques, and life raft embarkation and disembarkation from water.

As seats are limited, we encourage you to register your interest early to secure your spot.
