Course Description
In This Course, You Will Learn to:
- Interpret the performance-based requirements of the OSHA process safety management (PSM) regulation and the prevention program portion of the EPA risk management program (RMP) rule ("the PSM regulations")
- Develop and implement a cost-effective PSM program for a single facility or an entire corporation
Study Specific Guidelines
As we go over each element of the PSM regulations, you will study specific guidelines for developing written programs to meet the PSM regulations, integrating PSM element requirements into other corporate programs, and evaluating program compliance throughout the implementation phase. You will also gain insight into the latest regulatory developments and receive summary documentation of key clarifications by OSHA and EPA.
Examples of PSM Program Elements
You will take with you extensive examples of actual or generic programs for individual PSM elements; you can adapt many of these programs for use at your facility to satisfy the requirements of the regulations.
Extensive Workshops
Exercises and workshops are used throughout the course to illustrate interpretations of the requirements and demonstrate ways to develop an effective PSM program.
Save Time and Money
Through this course you will save time and money when developing your own PSM program. It could cost a company $100,000 or more to develop the understanding, obtain the resources, and develop the equivalent of the example programs and procedures offered in this course.
