The dredging industry poses many potential risks to its employees. Dredging activities can be risky operations with hidden dangers involving heavy machinery. Safety is therefore always a top priority and it is not a one-time effort. Constant vigilance requires innovation. On this page, you will find information about the different safety programmes of our members.
