Process safety management (PSM) systems are only as effective as the
day-to-day ability of the organization to rigorously execute system
requirements correctly every time. The failure of just one person in
completing a job task correctly just one time can unfortunately lead to
serious injuries and potentially catastrophic incidents. In fact, the
design, implementation, and daily execution of PSM systems are all
dependent on workers at all levels in the organization doing their job
tasks correctly every time. High levels of Operational Discipline,
therefore, help ensure strong PSM performance and overall operational
excellence.
This book details management practices which help ensure rigor in
executing process safety programs in order to prevent major accidents.
