This updated guidance sets out good practice for managing competence and training in emergency response for all personnel who work on, or visit, offshore installations on the UK Continental Shelf. Designed to support duty holders, operators and contractors, the guidance provides a clear, structured approach to ensuring individuals are properly prepared to respond effectively in emergency situations.
It outlines a comprehensive framework covering the identification of emergency response roles, the competencies required for each role, and the processes for training, assessment, practice and ongoing competence assurance. The guidance addresses both personnel with specific emergency response duties and those with no defined roles, and includes practical direction on exercises, simulations and refresher training.
An essential reference for strengthening emergency preparedness, workforce confidence and safety performance across offshore operations.
