Process Safety Management Systems

address the management of process hazards in the design, construction, startup-up, operation, inspection, maintenance and modification of assets with the potential for a major catastrophic release of a toxic or flammable material. Process safety management systems have become an integral part of regulatory requirements in many countries including Europe through the “Seveso Directive” (COMAH) and the USA through OSHA 29CFR 1910.119 and the EPA Risk Management Program.
