RegisterAs technological systems grow in complexity, identifying safety hazards and managing their impact becomes increasingly challenging. Plant Managers and Engineers must recognize that safety and risk management are integral to the daily operations of their plants, engineering, and process systems. Adhering to evolving international and national environmental and economic standards is crucial.
Unsafe systems can lead to significant financial losses due to accidents, production disruptions, legal liabilities, loss of market share, and the degradation of company assets and the environment.
Key highlights include equipping participants with practical approaches to safety engineering and risk assessment; introducing methods and techniques to eliminate, mitigate, and control major hazards; utilizing well-established principles from leading international bodies, such as the IChemE (Institute of Chemical Engineers), refined over years of learning from major accidents; and providing participants with a working knowledge of proactive and reactive processes to assess and control risks effectively.
- Apply principles of hazard identification and risk assessment to processes and machinery
- Understand the concept of reliability and utilize failure tracing methods
- Demonstrate a practical understanding of quantitative risk assessment techniques and required data management
- Advise management on the most effective control methods based on risk evaluation
- Identify requirements for developing safe work systems
- Recognize relevant international standards for reliability and machinery safety
