Improving PHA Leadership and Study Outcomes II

Audits and reviews often identify poor quality Process Hazard Analyses (PHAs). Companies may send potential PHA leaders to a training course for a few days, and then expect them to be experts in PHA methodologies, facilitate teams effectively, and produce high quality PHAs “out of the gate.” Industry can do much better in identifying and training PHA leaders/facilitators and developing reviews and practices to improve both leadership and study outcomes. Improvements may be achieved through follow-up training, peer reviews, mentoring, and other approaches. This session will explore innovative and successful approaches for developing more effective PHA leaders and ensuring consistent high quality PHA outcomes.
