Tanabe M., Miyake A., 2022, Strategic Implementation of Risk Based Process Safety in Process Plant Organization, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 90, 799-804.
The US OHSA PSM and the CCPS RBPS clarifies the requirements for the operation and asset management elements related to process safety. Since different departments are in charge of these elements across organizations and sometimes tend toward organizational silo of operation-maintenance-safety, the ability to organize process safety information across departments becomes important. The Strategic PSM (SPSM) Research Group was established through industry-government-academia collaboration to propose an effective implementation of the risk-based approach for process safety management for Japanese industry. This is since Japanese Safety Regulation systems had been moving from a prescriptive approach to emphasizing operator’s accountability and risk-based approach.
