This publication does not itself alter or determine compliance responsibilities, which are set forth in OSHA standards themselves, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Moreover, because interpretations and enforcement policy may change over time, for additional guidance on OSHA compliance requirements, the reader should consult current administrative interpretations and decisions by the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission and the courts.

Source credit is requested but not required. This document concerns the longshoring industry, including marine terminal operations, cargo handling, personnel protection, and safety and health regulations for longshoring.
