Executive Summary
: Currently, McNeely’s Processed Meats does not have an active process safety management (PSM) program. The amount of ammonia our company has on our site makes our company subject to compliance OSHA’s 1910.119 standard of PSM standard. The characteristic of our company that places us in the PSM standard is the 12,000 pounds of ammonia stored within the refrigeration system, as the amount OSHA identifies as the PSM threshold quantity is 10,000 pounds. To enter compliance with OSHA, as well as protect our workforce, we need to implement a PSM program and take the corrective actions necessary to reduce the risk of storing this hazardous chemical. Compliance with the PSM standard is a non-negotiable need, and it is imperative that we take on the time and cost to achieve compliance. Section 1
To comply with OSHA’s PSM standard, there are a few basic needs for our company policy. A written program must be documented, and a PHA must be completed and documented as well. Within the program, operating procedures must be created and will be kept on file and available for employees. To ensure employee knowledge, training will be conducted for the hazards and risk associated with ammonia and the operations the workforce will be completing. The implementation of a hot work permit program for our process will be included in the program. In the case our company has an incident, an emergency action plan will be clearly detailed for our employees. For changes that need to be made for compliance, a plan for evaluating contractors will be included in the PSM program. Also outlined in the program will be
a pre-start review will be needed for our ammonia process. A review will be implemented for mechanical integrity evaluations through engineering. Some management elements included in compliance will be incident investigation procedures, management of change plans, and compliance audits. Section
2
While there are many tasks to be completed in order to achieve compliance with OSHA’s PSM standard, there is a clear path to complete what needs to be done. First, using current knowledge and utilization of OSHA’s PSM standard, a PSM policy will need to be developed and implemented in the workplace. Once a program is drafted, conducting a process hazard analysis (PHA) will be done by safety, along with engineering to identify mechanical aspects that
generate risk. Once hazards are identified and a plan is in place, training and implementation of the PSM program and safe operating procedures will be expected. Once implemented, auditing and evaluation of the program will be conducted.
Section 3
Safety personnel will be responsible for forming the PSM policy and documents. The program as a whole, safe operating procedures, emergency action plans, management of change policy, audit checklists, and training for employees are to be developed, implemented, and 1

reviewed by all safety personnel. Once the program is written, maintenance and engineering will need to meet with safety to perform test necessary for evaluation of mechanical components. Training of the workforce will be completed by safety. Ultimately, it is up to the workforce to apply what they learn in training to their daily tasks. Safety will be responsible in giving the workforce the knowledge they need, but this knowledge is useless without action. Operational management and safety personnel will need to identify prioritized operating procedures and develop disciplinary actions appropriate for workforce employees that fail to follow program standards. The management of change piece of the program will need to be cocreated by both operational management and safety personnel to coordinate change procedures. Safety, engineering, and maintenance will identify operational changes that need to be made and will present the needs to operations management. It is up to operation management to coordinate the cheapest and most effective option to achieve what is identified as an issue. Section 4
The first step needed is a written PSM program by the safety department, expected to be completed within one month. Safety and engineering will conduct a PHA of our refrigeration system over the next three days, with the expectation of engineering presenting their findings within a month. Once completed, high risk issues will be relayed to operations and maintenance for creating a plan on remediating the issues. At this point, training for all employees will be conducted, expecting to take a couple of days. Once training is completed, issues within the operations of our company identified by engineering will begin repairs. Once three months passes after training is completed, review of compliance to our written program and evaluation of the program itself will begin to be completed.

XYZ, shoe manufacturing company, was not fulfilling orders due to bad working condition in the factory The management of XYZ Corporation decided to launch an inquiry to find the actual reasons of this problem. Management found that orders were not being met due to the following reasons; • Huge noise created by machines
• Production hall was not cleaned and it was leaving a very bad effect on the health conditions of workers,
resultantly, they were unable to work efficiently and effectively. Due to the above mentioned two main reasons many shoes were being destroyed and ultimately causing
order delays As a quality control manager, what changes would you suggest in the working environment of the Xyz Company so that It can overcome its problem of order delaying?"

I. ISACA Definition and Function
Treadstone Company has an internal audit department consisting of a director and four (4) staff auditors. The director of internal audit, Mark Tan, reports to the corporate controller, who receives copies of all internal audit reports. Also, copies of all internal audit reports are sent to the audit committee of the board of directors and the individual responsible for the area of activity being audited.
In the past, the company’s external auditors have relied on the work of the internal audit department to a substantial degree. However, in recent months, Mark has become concerned that some standards in the performance of the internal audit function are being affected by the non-audit work being performed by the department. The possible failure to meet such standards could result in more extensive testing and analysis by the external auditors. The percentage of non-audit work performed by the internal auditors has steadily increased to about…

14. Digital Controls, Inc. (DCI) manufactures two models of a radar gun used by police to mon-
itor the speed of automobiles. Model A has an accuracy of plus or minus 1 mile per hour,
whereas the smaller model B has an accuracy of plus or minus 3 miles per hour. For the next
week, the company has orders for 100 units of model A and 150 units of model B. Although
DCI purchases all the electronic components used in both models, the plastic cases for both
models are manufactured at a DCI plant in Newark, New Jersey. Each model A case re-
quires 4 minutes of injection-molding time and 6 minutes of assembly time. Each model B
case requires 3 minutes of injection-molding time and 8 minutes of assembly time. For next
week the Newark plant has 600 minutes of injection-molding time available and 1080 min-
utes of assembly time available. The manufacturing cost is $10 per case for model A and $6
per case for model B. Depending upon demand and the time available at the Newark plant,

Situation: An oriented-strand board manufacturer operated its plant on a 24-hour, 7-day work week with two 12-hours shifts. Shift changes occurred at 8:00 am and 8:00 pm. At approximately 8:30 pm on January 18, 2001, a wet hog, which was located in a wood room, dropped off line and would not operate. The wet hog was used to grind tree bark and wood residue into a wet fuel used in wet-fuel burners in the plant. The wet hog was not essential to the operation of the plant, and whether or not it was operating had no effect on other operations in the plant. An electrician was assigned to repair the hog. At approximately 10:30 pm, he entered the motor control room and opened a 2300-volt motor circuit breaker. He caused an electrical fault in the circuit breaker, apparently by contacting energized parts inside the circuit breaker cubicle, and the ensuing electric arc burned the employee and ignited his clothing. He sustained burns over 90 percent of his body, 60 percent of which were…

Problem 1Human visual inspection is necessary in many quality engineering contexts and is naturallysubject to subjectivity. This is especially true for the inspection of solder joints on circuit boards,as there are numerous types of solder defects, as well as a degree to which a joint possessesone or more defect. Consequently, even highly trained inspectors can disagree on the status ofa particular joint. In a batch of 10,000 such joints, inspector A found 724 to be defective,inspect B found 751 to be defective, and 1159 of the joints were judged to be defective by atleast one of the inspectors. Suppose that one of the 10,000 joints is randomly selected.a. What is the probability that the selected joint was judged to be defective by neither ofthe two inspectors?b. What is the probability that the selected joint was judged to be defective by inspector Bbut not by inspector A?
