Guidelines for Risk Based Process Safety provides guidelines for
industries that manufacture, consume, or handle chemicals, by focusing
on new ways to design, correct, or improve process safety management
practices. This new framework for thinking about process safety builds
upon the original process safety management ideas published in the early
1990s, integrates industry lessons learned over the intervening years,
utilizes applicable "total quality" principles (i.e., plan, do, check,
act), and organizes it in a way that will be useful to all
organizations - even those with relatively lower hazard activities -
throughout the life-cycle of a company.
