Requirement

The UoC shall log all commercial diving activities and maintain records, including a list of any persons involved.

How Do I Interpret This Requirement?

  • Commercial divers are professional divers who engage in underwater operations and have specific skills and qualifications.

  • Through keeping records of commercial diving activities, the UoC can:

    • monitor time spent diving

    • ensure qualifications of commercial divers

    • ensure that appropriate health and safety measures are in place.

  • The types of records to keep depends on local regulations and the type of dive certification. At a minimum, records include:

    • dives

    • time

    • depth

    • surface time

    • associated dive table records.

    • This is usually recorded with a dive safety checklist.

    • These records are also used for the daily diving plan.

Evidence of Implementation

  • list of persons involved in diving at the UoC.

Auditors Should Confirm
