Marine transportation safety
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada’s (TSB) Watchlist identifies the key safety issues that need to be addressed to make Canada’s transportation system even safer.
The issues on this list are supported by a combination of investigation reports, Board safety concerns and Board recommendations. All of them, however, require a concerted effort from the regulator and industry stakeholders.
Commercial fishing safety
Over the past 30 years, the TSB has been sounding the alarm over the numerous safety deficiencies in commercial fishing.
Safety management
Some transportation operators in the air, marine, and rail sectors are not managing their safety risks effectively.
Fatigue management
Crews often work long and irregular schedules, which poses a significant risk.
Regulatory surveillance
Regulatory surveillance has not always proven effective at verifying whether operators are, or have become, compliant with regulations and able to manage the safety of their operations.
