If your facility uses, stores, manufactures, handles, or moves flammable or highly hazardous chemicals on site above the threshold quantity (TQ), OSHA does require PSM implementation. Learn the facts about process safety management.
The chemical company of a large integrated energy company was developing a corporate standard for LOPA, which incorporated a risk ranking matrix. The company was interested in obtaining an independent review of the design of the risk matrix, and in benchmarking the underlying risk tolerability criteria with generally accepted industry norms.
Companies have implemented their process safety management programs to comply with OSHA and EPA requirements, but they continue to have accidents. Process safety management programs can meet the letter of the law, but may not be effective in preventing accidents.
Compliance with OSHA’s PSM standard requires considerable effort to stay in compliance. This paper describes what the elements of an effective PSM program are. It requires a good understanding of the RAGAGEPs that apply to your facility and ensuring that the PSM program procedures incorporate these requirements. It requires constant vigilance to stay up to date on changes. And it requires an effective compliance audit program.
