Escorting responsibilities

The person escorting:

1. The Escort Application Form that you submit must be approved by Fremantle Ports before the escort can be allowed. If the form has not been approved, escorted entry is not allowed.

2. The maximum number of people who can be escorted by a holder of a valid MSIC/Fremantle Ports Access card is four and each person will only be permitted one escorted entry unless they have applied for an MSIC/Fremantle Ports Access card. (Please note: An MSIC without Fremantle Ports Access is not sufficient either to gain entry or escort.)

3. Upon arrival at the gate, please press the button on the bollard and advise that you are escorting. Then show your MSIC/Fremantle Ports Access card or MSIC and Fremantle Ports Access card to the camera.

4. After passing through Fremantle Ports’ gates, you will be fully responsible for the people you have agreed to escort while in the Maritime Zone.

5. You must ensure that the people you are escorting are within visible range of you at all times.

6. If the escorted person is boarding a ship to do work, the ship is responsible while the person is on board. However, they must be escorted to and from the ship and they will be your responsibility during these times.
