This workshop provides a strategy/roadmap for the Process Safety Excellence journey for front line teams to increase the likelihood of teams making good process safety risk decisions--“Get It Right”; that keeps equipment and safeguards reliable and prevents Loss of Containment (keep it in the pipes and vessels). Process Safety Excellence is a key requirement for Operational Excellence (OE) across chemical process industry (CPI) production sites globally, and like OE, requires a strategy to build/sustain a High Reliability Organization (HRO) comprised of interdependent High Reliability Teams (HRTs) across all functions and at all levels from the site leadership team to front line shifts with all focused on the Critical 5CsTM and communicating/cooperating to make good risk decisions.
(This course does not specifically focus on the twenty Risk Based Process Safety elements. For a detailed course, we recommend our flagship course, Process Safety Boot Camp.)
This workshop is intended to get those on the front lines actively engaged and committed to the journey to excellence. Participants should include site functional leaders (from engineering, operations, maintenance) and selected staff members from their organizations, shift and area supervisors, control room operators, field operators, maintenance crafts specialists, and process engineers and reliability engineers supporting operations and maintenance activities.
