Process Safety Management

The Process Safety Management standard is designed to prevent disasters when facilities handle large amounts of flammable or toxic chemicals. Although compliance with the standard can require a large amount of effort, the approach embodied within the standard is very simple. Make sure that the facility design is adequate for the level of hazards being handled. Ensure that the process technology is well documented and communicated to all who might effect changes in that technology. Ensure that the people operating and repairing the equipment are adequately trained. Prevent changes to equipment, control systems, and operating procedures from occurring without adequate review. In order to accomplish these goals, the PSM standard requires the development of a written PSM program for each facility exceeding the threshold. This program shall address each of the twelve elements of the standard. Whether the process is a new design, or an old unit that has recently exceeded the regulatory threshold, Curtis Management Resources is prepared to provide the technical expertise needed to meet the requirements of PSM.
