Any time highly hazardous substances are not properly controlled, there is potential for an accidental release leading to a process safety incident. The failure to manage process safety and the associated consequences is a documented industry issue—one that can lead to a release of harmful substances that have the potential to impact the larger community and an organization’s license to operate.
With a continued focus on compliance requirements and recognition of the consequences resulting from major accidents, prudent companies across the chemical and energy sectors are demonstrating a renewed focus on process safety. This includes improvements in leadership, culture, reliability, and regulatory compliance underpinned with an integrated management system.
Kestrel is helping companies such as these to focus not just on process safety compliance, but on the holistic management of process safety.
