Many changes have occurred since the 1992 convention in Minamata, Japan. The world has recognized a need for an anticipatory approach to manage industrial disasters. In the US the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has tried to improve and anticipate the industrial safety of chemical facilities. In response to the Bhopal, India tragedy the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (CAAA) section 112(r) requires the EPA to publish the Risk Management Plan (RMP) regulations. Part of the CAAA mandated that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) create the Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals 29 CFR 1910.119 standard. These regulations require hazard assessments, chemical release prevention programs, and emergency response preparedness (Environmental Protection Agency, 2009).

The health and safety responsibilities like coaching, training, monitoring HSE performance and compliance, data analysis amongst others are roles that are not new to me and I am so excited to perform and play my part in achieving the Dow safety vision if I am privileged to work for Dow.

It is important it have a written work Health and Safety Policy for the organizations and businesses which have management systems. The Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 addresses Major Hazard Facilities in Regulation 558 and Schedule 17(1.2) and requires that the Safety Management System includes a Safety Policy, including the operator’s broad aims in relation to the safe operation of the major hazard facility, and that the safety policy must include and express commitment to ongoing improvement of all aspects of the safety management system. A Work Health and Safety Policy is an explicit statement of business commitment to work health and safety. It will include a statement outlining the importance which is placed on work health and safety and how it is to be implemented.

Just recently, All Weather Windows Commercial Ltd., has purchased a smaller company with a large glass manufacturing facility. This smaller company has approximately 150 employees that now work under our organization. Throughout this assignment, I will focus on basic safety initiatives to implement into the new facility. The reason I chose to focus on implementing basic safety initiatives, is based on the fact, this new facility is populated with many plant workers and has to now adopt my organization safety program.

Cost reduction, should therefore, not be confused with cost saving and cost control. Cost saving could be a temporary affair and may be at the cost of quality. Cost reduction implies the retention of essential characteristics and quality of the product and thus it must be confined to permanent and genuine savings in the costs of manufacture, administration, distribution and selling, brought about by elimination of wasteful and inessential elements form the design of the product and from the techniques and practices carried out in connection therewith.

Various issues affecting health and safety have characterized the construction industry. The industry is considered as one of the high-risk areas of operation both in developed and developing nations. As such, various efforts have been introduced to help address this problem appropriately. This paper undertakes a literature review in the issue of health and safety systems characterizing construction firms and the diverse management systems they are adopting to facilitate to help them meet OHSAS 18001 certification standards. It shows that since construction firms have a major influence on gross domestic product and employment in countries, there is a need to ensure that the firms operating in this industry meet the health and safety standards needed. The paper embarks a methodology for measuring the health and safety performance through integration of integrated management system and the role of initial safety review in allowing firms to follow the regulations, policies, and standards of operation, which in turn boost their compliance with OHS. Furthermore, it recommends organizations, such as ABC Company to devise ways of inspecting results and measuring performance of H&S and OHSAS 18001 to ensure that companies realize increased competitiveness in the marketplace.

The purpose of this project is to investigate to any topic relevant to Technology Transfer. In this report I will be investigating on Process safety management. Safety on work place is one of the priority element management of the manufacture put in front, should fix the rules to follow, monitoring. Some area where the standards have to be applied such as in chemicals sections, transportation of materials and fabricated metal products, gas, electric services. Incident communication is about sharing of information about incident management between the decision makers and regulators and stakeholders. Parties can communicate at any stage of the risk management process. The output/result of incident management process should be appropriately communicated and documented for the future reference. Process safety management has tools available to identify the hazardous and assess the incidents such as Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA). The process safety management is important to employees, contractors, customers. Incidents continue to occur in various industries that use highly hazardous chemicals which may be toxic, reactive, flammable, or explosive, or may exhibit a combination of these properties.
