Safety always comes first at the KNRM. With over 2,500 deployments per year, they continuously invest in the best personal protective equipment. Every crew member wears a survival suit, AIS-MOB, and electronic flare, among other things, so that alerting and visibility are always possible.

Good equipment and regular training make all the difference. Never underestimate the power of water and weather. With the right protection, you can save your own life.

A life jacket only saves lives if it is worn correctly. A backpack over the jacket can seriously limit buoyancy and significantly reduce the chances of rescue.

Personal protective equipment is a last resort. We determine when and what equipment is needed based on the risks involved. Where there is a risk of falling, a life jacket is standard equipment. “We regularly provide information based on toolboxes to make people aware of this. It is one of the last means of ensuring your safety, so just put it on.”

Personal protective equipment only works if it fits properly and is used correctly. It is your last line of defense in the event of an accident. A simple choice that makes a big difference!
