All employees are required to observe the smoking regulations in their work location, whether onboard a
vessel, or at any other BOURBON facility.
Smoking regulations are designed to protect you and your fellow employees. Smoking is a recognised health
and safety hazard and is therefore only permitted in designated areas, both onboard vessels and at
BOURBON shore bases and offices.
Designated smoking areas are to be assigned at the discretion of the Master onboard vessels and the senior
management at shore bases and offices, having due consideration for those employees who do not smoke
and are entitled to work and spend their off-duty time in a smoke free atmosphere.
On vessels not equipped with a purpose designed smoking room inside the accommodation, designated
smoking areas
shall
be outside of all accommodation, living and rest areas. Additionally, smoking is not
permitted in any interior work areas such as the bridge or engine control room.
At shore bases and offices, smoking is only permitted outside of buildings in safe designated areas.
All non-smoking areas should be explained during familiarisation at all BOURBON vessels, shore bases,
offices and other areas as applicable. Similarly, safe designated smoking areas should be explained.
“No Smoking” signs may
be posted as deemed necessary.
