Notify the ship’s Safety Officer, who will perform a Risk Assessment and advise on the safety precautions necessary.

Nothing special, it’s only a refrigerator and everything will be OK.

Go inside and check but ensure that you get someone else to go inside the space with you.

Hold your breath as you enter, locate the gas leak and stick some tape over the hole.

An electrical food processing unit in the galley has multiple attachments. Can they be used for any task?

Yes, if it looks like they might do the job.

No, attachments should be used for the designed purpose only.

Yes, but only if they fit the same socket on the equipment.

Sometimes – it depends on whether they have the same colour coding.

As best practice, how often should the tip and cog wheel of a tin opener be cleaned?

Once a day.

They should report the defect through the proper channels, isolate the equipment from the power supply and place a safety notice on the unit.

They should try to adapt another piece of equipment to perform mixing tasks.

You ship has received stores, some of which have been packed in dry ice. What is the significant risk if the packages are left in a storeroom at ambient temperature for any length of time?

Dry ice is carbon dioxide in its solid state. If significant quantities of gas are release as it melts, then oxygen depletion in the storage space is a possibility.

Dry ice is carbon monoxide in a frozen condition. If it is allowed to melt the liquid, it releases is corrosive and can damage human tissue it comes into contact with.

Dry ice is super-cooled nitrogen. If it melts, then the atmosphere can become positively charged and an increased explosion risk will develop.

Dry ice is ice that has been created in a controlled, dry environment. If it is placed in a warm atmosphere, it becomes brittle and can shatter, throwing sharp needles of glass several metres.
