PROGRAM DETAILS



Introduction

Any industry must be committed to protecting the health, safety and the surrounding environment of all employees, facilities, members of the public and the environment. In addition, it seeks to prevent workplace related illness or injury to all employees and contractors and also promotes the importance of occupational health and safety in all aspects and operations of the refinery.

This commitment extends to implementing a system of monitoring potential hazards and their impacts in order to ensure that applicable laws, standards, regulations and industry codes of practice are not compromised.

Operating safely in any industry demands efficient control systems and constant vigilance at all stages of the processing and delivery operation. Highly trained Environment and Safety team observes strict adherence to safe practices, against criteria set internationally for the handling, storage and delivery of products.

Procedures for the receive of raw materials and finished products, as well as, the processing of final products and their delivery to the trade are monitored by state-of-the-art equipment on a twenty-four (24) hour basis.

In addition, an ongoing training programme must be implemented for staff as well as seminars for other stakeholders including contractors, marketing companies and government agencies.

In this short training programme you will get the benefit on how to link these three major issues (Health, Safety & Environment) at work and you will get the opportunity to learn and understand the importance of having a complete package in dealing with these issues.

  • The Safety Case Approach
  • Elements of environmental protection

Safety Culture at the Workplace

Building Good safety culture among the workforce is long-term defence against occurrence of hazards

  • Motivation and employee involvement
  • Development of proactive safety culture
  • How to promote safety culture
  • Behavioural Safety and employee’s involvement
  • Selection of outcome indicators
  • Attitudes in the workplace
  • Manager operator relationships

  • Measurement of Safety
  • Near-miss Reporting/ Investigation of accidents
  • Maintenance of Critical Equipment
  • Safety Performance and Reliability – Terms & Concepts

Case Studies of Industrial Fires & Explosions

Major Effects on environment caused by  Chemical Accidents

Consequences of accident on health 7 environment – use HAZAN technique

Consequence analysis considers the physical effects and the damages caused by workplace accidents.
