| Summary: | Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Process Safety
Management (PSM) standard has excellent requirements that could and should
prevent process accidents if industries follow the regulation as intended. However,
compliance with the standard is challenging to the organization because of the broad
scope and highly technical nature of OSHA PSM requirements. When converting the
standard into the practices, these have led to great amount of misinterpretation and
inconsistency resulting in poor PSM implementation program. The main objective of
the study is to develop a system for effective PSM implementation and compliance
with the regulation. In this study, integrating PSM programs based on interrelation
between the elements is proposed which introduces interesting concept for
implementing PSM in process industries. |
