Leadership “These elements can be thought of asa chain of safety. rather than applied to James Reason's Swiss Cheese Model’ This isbecause we do not need failures in al elements to have an inccent, but rather multiple failures in one element could result in an incident. The integrity ofthe chain isin the multiple ayers behind it, hence demonstrated knowledge and competency nll elements is required across an organisation. Lastly thisisa living document and we expect tat competency systems will evolve ever time. Ifyou have an established process safety competency system thats working wel, and differs from the framework described here, please share your example, so we can continue fo improve this guidance for everyone. neue Acknowledgements the ISC The 8 woul ee acknowledge thers of the following companies, who participated in the SERN development of this guidance: Apache Energy ~ Steve Lyon 1m ConocoPhilips = Debra Dixon [MMI Engineering ~ Paul Helerman-Rix and Garry law rica ~ Simon Farrah Rio Tinto ~Paul Shardlow Santos ~St Sreedhar Shell Developments Australia ~ Todd Busby Woodside - Gordon Rutter wonvichernesafetycentre.org
