Investigations have begun into deaths in accidents at two Irish ports last week.
A port worker was killed after he was struck by machinery at the port of Dublin on Friday.
And on Thursday at Waterford, a 51-year-old Filipino crewman died after falling more than five metres on a cargoship.
The seafarer was trying to tie down a load on board the 3,600-dwt multipurpose Scot Pioneer (built 2006).
The Port of Waterford Company issued a statement to extend its sympathy to the family and colleagues of the crewman.
The vessel is operated by Scotline of the UK.
