Infos

Process safety management (PSM) systems are only as effective as
the day-to-day ability of the organization to rigorously execute
system requirements correctly every time. The failure of just one
person in completing a job task correctly just one time can
unfortunately lead to serious injuries and potentially catastrophic
incidents. In fact, the design, implementation, and daily execution
of PSM systems are all dependent on workers at all levels in the
organization doing their job tasks correctly every time. High
levels of Operational Discipline, therefore, help ensure strong PSM
performance and overall operational excellence.

This book details management practices which help ensure rigor
in executing process safety programs in order to prevent major
accidents.
