Some of this ACOP has been revoked by the Work at Height Regulations 2005, the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998, and the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997.

HSE is revising its website to reflect current legislation and standards. HSE is also supporting the development of comprehensive guidance for the industry on the Port Skills and Safety (PSS) website. This quick guide and the PSS industry guidance will constitute current good practice and will be used as a benchmark for health and safety by both industry and HSE. Once the new guidance has been assessed, a decision will be made on review and revision of the ACOP, and how best to reflect current ports-sector legislation.
