Study Notes
Advanced Safety Concepts
-
Process Safety Management (PSM): Key elements include employee participation, process hazard analysis (PHA), operating procedures, training, mechanical integrity, management of change, safety audits, incident investigation, emergency planning, and compliance with standards.
-
Hazardous Materials Management: Focuses on identification, classification, Properties (flammability, corrosivity, reactivity, toxicity), storage, labelling, handling, training (COSHH), transportation (DOT, IATA, IMDG), and disposal of hazardous materials. Regulations include RCRA (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act) addressing cradle-to-grave disposal, incineration, landfills, and recycling.
-
Globally Harmonized System (GHS): A universal standard for hazard communication of chemicals, including labelling and SDS (Safety Data Sheets) with uniform classification and labelling. OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) aligns with GHS.
Human Performance
-
Human Error: Categorized as slips, mistakes, and lapses, also considering cognitive factors like attention, memory, decision-making, and situational awareness. Physical and ergonomic factors, work environment, training, and competency, and tools such as behavioural safety audits, performance feedback, and checklists for error reporting are relevant.
-
Product Liability Coverage: Designed to cover costs related to insurance claims. Includes general liability, professional liability (errors and omissions), product liability (related to consumer products), automobile liability (accidents involving vehicles), and workers' compensation (liability related to employee injuries).
