Tidal work presents unique challenges and inherent dangers that require careful consideration and expertise to ensure the safety of workers and the success of the project. Some of the key dangers associated with tidal work include:

1. Tidal Fluctuations: The changing tide brings varying water levels, currents, and waves, which can pose significant risks to personnel and equipment. Sudden changes in water depth and velocity can lead to accidents, entrapment, or loss of control of machinery.

2. Unstable Ground Conditions: Tidal environments often have unstable and unpredictable ground conditions, including soft sediments, shifting sands, and mud. This can increase the risk of ground collapse, sinking, or equipment becoming stuck, jeopardizing worker safety.

3. Limited Access and Egress: Tidal work areas can have restricted access and limited windows of opportunity due to fluctuating water levels. Workers must carefully plan their activities to ensure safe entry and exit, considering the timing of tides and potential hazards associated with changing water conditions.
