Safety Technology and Risk Management Course
Introduction:
The complexity of technology systems makes it more challenging to recognize safety risks and manage their effects. In order to comply with the ever-changing and strict national and international environmental and economic values and standards, plant managers and engineers are realizing that safety and risk affect every facet of their day-to-day operations, including engineering and process systems.
Course Objectives:
This training course has been designed to enable delegates upon completion to be able to:
- Apply the principles of hazard identification and assessment of risk to processes and machinery
- Understand reliability concept and use of failure tracing methods
- Demonstrate a practical understanding of a quantitative risk assessment technique and the date required for records
- Advise management on the most effective control methods based on the evaluation of risk
- Identify the general requirement for the development of a safe system of work
- Recognize relevant International Standards for Reliability and Machinery Safety
