Inherent Safety in Design and Operation Development

This course will help you better understand the principles of inherent safety and their application to new and existing facilities. This practical course uses real-life examples that can help establish a safer, more efficient and more profitable plant.

The first module mainly focuses on risk reduction strategies. The second module is dedicated to inherent safety principles. The modules are effective as stand-alone training sessions or as part of a modular training programme.

Learning outcomes

By the end of this course, you will understand:

• how to identify the principles of inherent safety
• when the best time is to use the inherent safety principles
• how inherent safety forms a wider safety management system

Who is it for?

Staff responsible for design, commissioning, decommissioning, construction and installation of plant, plant/process operators including maintenance functions, safety engineers, loss prevention specialists and environmental engineers.

What do you get?

• downloads of all modules (usually an hour each)
• most modules have a FAQ section at the end 
• digital copies of slides and supporting materials (PDF) 
• e-certificate of attendance, including hours allocation for CPD purposes (on request)
