Fire Safety
Fire incidents can ruin a business overnight. Fire safety is our highest priority and our strongest area of expertise.

Jacquot Health & Safety delivers dry dock health and safety management for vessel refurbishment projects, from initial risk assessment through final sign-off.
We reduce risk by identifying hazards before they become incidents, applying the principles of ISO 45001, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001 across every stage of a project. Our approach treats dry dock health and safety as a continuous discipline, not a checklist completed once and filed away.
We work lean, and that’s by design: no layers of bureaucracy between you and the team managing your site’s safety. You deal directly with the people doing the assessments, not a rotating cast of account managers. That direct access means faster decisions, clearer communication, and safety management that adapts to your schedule rather than the other way around.
Jacquot Health & Safety was founded in 2021, built on firsthand experience working dry docks across Marseille, La Ciotat, and Brest along the French coast, and Vancouver in Canada, including time spent onboard vessels directly as a fire watch, not just observing the work from a desk. We know what the job actually requires because we’ve done it, and that experience shapes how we plan assessments, brief teams, and communicate risk to the people who need to act on it.
We operate across the European Union. Projects outside the EU can be considered on a case-by-case basis but aren’t part of our standing service area.
Most shipyards have internal HSE teams. We’re not a replacement for them — we’re the capacity they call on when a project demands more than their current headcount can cover alone.
A major refit, an accelerated drydock schedule, simultaneous hot-work operations across multiple vessels — these are the moments when having a vetted, experienced team ready to deploy within hours makes the difference between a project that runs to schedule and one that doesn’t. We integrate directly with your existing HSE function, working under your protocols and alongside your personnel, not over them.
If your team has the expertise but not the numbers for what’s ahead, that’s where we come in.
Our goal is to build long-term partnerships with dry docks and shipyards, delivering safety management that’s rigorous, responsive, and easy to work with, project after project. See our full range of HSE services to find out how we can support your next refurbishment.
