The operators of offshore wind farms invest a lot of time and money in occupational safety and health protection. Based on extensive preventive measures, such as the creation and application of protection and safety concepts, risk assessments and training, it was possible to create a high-quality and internationally outstanding offshore rescue infrastructure in the German EEZ within a few years.
