A guide to Offshore Personnel Transfers
Thirty five percent of all on the job fatalities result from motor vehicle accidents. This section of the program promotes safety precautions and practices that can be used to lessen the chance of motor vehicle accidents. These include vehicle maintenance, the physical and mental condition of the driver, basic driving skills, and driving at night or in bad weather.
Crewboat Safety:
The "Crewboat Safety" section
encourages safe transfer practices such as wearing required personal safety
equipment, knowing the location of PFD's, lifeboats, lifefloats and other
safety devices, avoiding back injuries while loading, and acting responsibly

This section discusses passenger guidelines, such as providing the correct total weight of himself and his gear to the dispatcher, approaching the helicopter from the front, avoiding the tail rotor, and listening to the pilot's preflight briefing. Also shown are the importance of wearing lifevests and seatbelts, autorotation, and emergency evacuation techniques.
