Title : Marine Safety Training Course
INTRODUCTION
DFO programs for Aboriginal fisheries aim at improving the socio-economic conditions for the First Nations by increasing their participation in commercial fisheries. In particular, DFO aims to increase the number of Aboriginal employees on fishing vessels operated by First Nations and increase their professional skills and their ability to perform the job safely.
Under the Canada Shipping Act, 2001, vessel owners are required to fully understand the regulatory requirements that apply to their operations and ensure that they are conducted in full compliance at all times. The owners are also responsible for developing procedures for the safe operation of their vessel, to deal with emergencies and to ensure that their crew receives security training.
DFO wants to implement a marine safety program for Aboriginal fishing vessels and their crews during the 2016 fishing season, and possibly extend it to 2017 and 2018. To achieve this goal, DFO has chosen to implement a proven marine safety training program called Safest Catch. This specialized program was developed by the Fish Safe organization in British Columbia and has been provided to commercial fishermen in that province since 2004.
DFO is soliciting bidders to provide a safety training program that meets the highest industry standards in marine safety, such as those of Safest Catch. The selected provider will offer hands-on training and support services to Aboriginal crew members regarding of safety procedures on board commercial fishing vessels.
The target clientele of this training are the 11 Aboriginal fisheries organizations in Quebec, that operate about 40 fishing vessels with a crew of over 150 fishermen.
