title: Selected problems of health and safety of divers in the light of Polish regulations.
abstract: The work addresses legal aspects of employing amateurs (diving clubs members) at underwater works, and lack of standards and regulations regarding light diving equipment for diving teams. New legislation is needed to lay down pensionable age for divers, regulate the employment of women for underwater works in some professions, and medical aspects of fitness certification for divers.
