These were established with the intent to minimize chemical accidents and manage the release of highly hazardous flammable and toxic chemicals. This course will guide you through interpreting these \u2018performance-based\u2019 regulations and developing and implementing a PSM program for a process under the purview of the OSHA PSM regulation and the EPA RMP rule. Participants will gain insights on ensuring your PSM program meets regulatory requirements and is implemented through an effective management system to enhance business performance. Discussions will also cover impending changes and their status in the rule-making process, to better prepare you for future revisions. This course extends beyond mere regulatory compliance, and covers concepts on fostering a culture of safety, metrics for continual improvement, and principles of inherent safety. Participants will be privy to industry best practices and lessons learned.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">\n<div class=\"title-bar\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0px; float: none;\">COURSE TOPICS<\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">Course topics:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">\n<li>Introduction to PSM<\/li>\n<li>What is Process Safety?<\/li>\n<li>Personnel Safety vs. Process Safety<\/li>\n<li>History of Accidents (e.g., Flixborough, Seveso, Bhopal, Mexico City, Pasadena, Texas City)<\/li>\n<li>Performance Based and Prescriptive Regulations<\/li>\n<li>Covered Processes and Applicability of PSM<\/li>\n<li>Elements of PSM\n<ul>\n<li>Employee Participation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Process Safety Information<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Process Hazard Analysis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Operating Procedures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Training<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Contractors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Pre-Startup Safety Review<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Mechanical Integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Hot Work Permit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Management of Change<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Incident Investigation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Emergency Planning and Response<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Compliance Audits<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Trade Secrets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Process Safety Program Requirements<\/li>\n<li>Final Quiz<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"title-bar\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0px; float: none;\">ONLINE COURSE DURATION<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">Approximately &#8212; 240 minutes<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">\n<div class=\"title-bar\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0px; float: none;\">PASS MARK<\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">80 Pass mark<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">\n<div class=\"title-bar\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0px; float: none;\">CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION<\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">Certificate of completion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14.0px;\">\n<div class=\"title-bar\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0px; float: none;\">COURSE PREVIEW<\/span><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This course offers a comprehensive look at the elements of Process Safety Management (PSM), as outlined by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) PSM Standard (29 CFR 1910.119) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Risk Management Program (RMP) Rule (40 CFR 68).
