Practical Workshop

Safety culture assessment: teams apply a culture survey tool to a provided scenario organisation, score current maturity, and propose a 12-month culture improvement programme.

Day 2

Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment

Apply structured techniques to identify hazards and assess risks systematically.

8 hours 3 modules
Module 1

Hazard Identification Techniques

  • HAZOP: study team, P&ID nodes, guidewords, and deviation analysis
  • HAZID: structured hazard identification for facilities and projects
  • What-if analysis: informal technique for routine operations
  • Job safety analysis (JSA): step-by-step hazard identification for tasks
Module 2

Risk Assessment Methods

  • Qualitative risk matrix: likelihood × consequence and ALARP application
  • Semi-quantitative: fine-kinney method and risk ranking systems
  • Bow-tie analysis: threat barriers, top event, and consequence barriers
  • Quantitative risk assessment (QRA): individual risk and societal risk criteria
Module 3

Occupational Health & Hygiene

  • Chemical hazards: occupational exposure limits (OELs) and health surveillance
  • Noise at work: dosimetry, noise action levels, and engineering controls
  • Manual handling and ergonomics: risk assessment and control hierarchy
  • Occupational health monitoring: baseline and periodic medical assessments
Practical Workshop

HAZOP node study: teams conduct a partial HAZOP on a provided P&ID, documenting deviations, causes, consequences, safeguards, and action recommendations.

Day 3

Process Safety Management

Apply process safety management elements to control major accident hazards in process facilities.

8 hours 3 modules
Module 1

PSM Programme Elements

  • PSM standard 29 CFR 1910.119: 14 elements overview
  • Process safety information (PSI): P&IDs, chemical data, and design codes
  • Mechanical integrity: inspection, testing, and maintenance for safety critical equipment
  • Operating procedures: content requirements, review, and operator access
Module 2

Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA)

  • LOPA methodology: initiating events, consequences, and IPL credit
  • Independent protection layer (IPL) criteria: specificity, independence, dependability
  • SIF and SIL determination: when is an SIS required?
  • LOPA limitations: what it does and does not cover
Module 3

Process Safety Leadership

  • Process safety KPIs: leading indicators (near misses, PHA actions, overdue work) and lagging
  • Major accident hazard (MAH) management: barrier thinking and Swiss cheese model
  • Safety case and safety report: purpose, structure, and regulatory submission
  • Process safety competency: workforce training and assessment requirements
