This report presents the findings from the latest G+ Global Offshore Wind Health and Safety Organisation (G+) Safe by Design workshop, which focused on the issues associated with access below the airtight deck in a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG). This included the design/infrastructure of the WTG and human factors.

The workshop, comprising several data gathering and data analysis activities, was held in Berlin on 23 May 2018. The workshop format was developed to explore reasons for access below the airtight deck in monopiles and the associated hazards and issues, with a focus on the Safe by Design principles.
