Process Safety Management (PSM) is the backbone of any process industry and is fundamental to its businesses, plant reliability, safe operations, employee well-being and prevention of catastrophic events.

In order to grow or sustain business and be responsible for its employees’ health, good organizations never compromise on the foundation of PSM in their business and operational decisions. But what if a deadly disease alters the way how organizations and systems typically work? Can we quickly adapt to such unprecedented challenges? Are we able to fulfill all requirements of process safety management system in this extraordinary scenario?

The paper will cover this topic in detail and it will shed light on the encountered challenges and tested best practices in order to maintain PSM during global pandemic.
