As many offshore plants are built domestically, many workers get various jobs in the offshore plants directly or indirectly. But workers(including seaman and non-seaman) still have hard time to getting the job in offshore plants because they still rely on personal contacts and limitation of adaptable positions. Now people who want to work at offshore plants have to get safety training under the regulation and request of IMO/STCW and OPITO. Recently OPITO reinforced offshore safety training and discussed the mutual agreement between IMO/STCW and OPITO. Therefore this study searched legal standards for offshore plant work and the trend of offshore safety training. Base on a survey among domestic delegates who completed BOSIET course from 2010, we now understand the actual situations in finding an effective way on how to advance domestic workers in the offshore plant industry.
