Maritime operations

COVID-19 Safety Plans are mandatory

Occupiers of wharves (operators) and vessels must have a COVID-19 Safety Plan.

Complete the plan in consultation with staff, then share it with them.

Commercial vessels (including tours, functions, parties or similar recreational activities) should use the COVID-19 Safety Plan for hospitality.

Businesses should also consider the benefits of registering as COVID Safe.

Keep your plan up to date

You may need to update the plan in the future, as restrictions and advice changes.

Your COVID-19 Safety Plan

You can either:

• use the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan to address the checklist of matters for maritime operations
• keep using your existing plan, if you have one, after making sure it includes all the items in the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan.

Complete a COVID-19 Safety Plan

Things to note:

• If you complete the plan online it will take 30 to 45 minutes and must be completed in one session.
• You may need to review current NSW Health guidance on the following areas before completing your plan:
  • physical distancing
  • square metres rules
  • record keeping
  • face masks
  • self-isolation and quarantine.
