One of the most challenging parts of process safety management is the attempt to interpret and convert specific safety elements into practices that are unique to a business. It is not uncommon to see one organisation interpret PSM elements differently than another organisation. Some companies, however, tend to interpret the regulation in a minimalistic manner or may simply limit their approach to cover basic compliance and legal regulations.
The PSM gap assessment identifies gaps at the beginning of your businesses’ project and provides detailed lists of your systems and people that can pose potential hazards that your facility may face. Through a process safety gap assessment, it’s possible to monitor, verify and implement specific safety measures.
Understanding PSM Gap Analysis
The process safety gap analysis is the first step in understanding the level at which a facility is currently performing at when it comes to process safety. It is, in essence, a series of assessments that aims to identify gaps and problematic areas that can be associated with uncertainty across operations, design and facility maintenance.
