Water Sports Audit Manual.pdf

The manual outlines the audit process for Water Sports centers offering snorkeling services, focusing on safety, security, and operational standards. It consists of two phases:

1. Phase 1: Preparation for Audit
- Technical managers must review and understand the prescribed standards and professional principles.
- They must submit specific documents to the Chamber of Diving & Water Sports (CDWS) via email, including:
- Copies of professional cards of guides working with the facility.
- Lists of medical oxygen cylinders and facility equipment.
- Passenger/participant lists used daily.
- Employee statements, including assigned tasks.
- Written emergency plans for diving activities.
- Confirmation of completion of risk awareness documents for snorkel participants.
- The facility will be informed of the inspection time and date after submitting the request.

2. Phase 2: Audit
- The audit consists of three parts:
- Part 1: Inspection of premises and equipment numbers according to ministerial decisions.
- Part 2: Compliance with security, safety standards, and basic technical requirements (points 1-8).
- Part 3: Compliance with security, safety standards, and basic technical requirements (points 9 onwards).
- The facility will be informed of the audit results and required actions within one week.

Consequences of Non-Compliance:
- First time limit for compliance: one week without issuing a membership letter.
- Second time limit for compliance: one week, after which the Ministry of Tourism (MOT) will be notified to suspend the license if it's in force.
