New video highlights how process safety can protect workers and communities
Industrial processes can be complex in manufacturing and oil and gas production facilities. If these processes get out of control or breach their containment pipes and vessels, consequences can include fire, explosion, and toxic releases into the workplace and the surrounding community.
Process safety management focuses on preventing these outcomes by proactively managing the risks of fires, explosions, chemical releases, and structural collapses.

They share the steps that make their process safety management systems effective, including process hazard analysis and regular system audits.
