The Australian Maritime Safety Authority on 27 September 2023 released the Maritime Safety Awareness Bulletin issue 18 - Safe working conditions and practices.
AMSA added:

Recent data suggests that safe working conditions and associated practices remain an issue on board vessels visiting Australia.
