Process Safety-Related
Standards & Regulations
Open
Instructional Learning Objectives
After completing this chapter, students should be

able to do the following:
Appreciate importance of standards & regulations
Identify and understand basic of relevant process
safety standards &regulations:
Occupational Safety and Health Act
Factory and Machinerys Act
Other International Safety Legislations: CIMAH,
OSHA PSM (US), EPA RMP (US)
Relate the standards and regulations
requirements with the application of process
safety fundamental to prevent losses
Open Chapter 2: Profess-Safety Related Standards & regulations 2

Most major incidents had occurred and
will be occurring because of
MANAGERIAL and ORGANISATIONAL
short comings
To overcome this problem, a more

SYSTEMATIC and STRUCTURED
approach is needed for an effective way
to MANAGE SAFETY in Business.

System for Managing Safety?
Set of CONTROLS which are used to MANAGE

proactively all types of HAZARDS & RISKS, and the
CONSEQUENCES, associated with the running of
BUSINESS activities and functions;
It is also to provide ASSURANCE to all STAKE

HOLDERS that the risks in the business are being
managed to a comfortable level, that is AS LOW AS
REASONBLY PRACTICABLE (ALARP).

Achieving Safety Excellence
How best you can identify and assess elements of

your current management practices in term of
knowing their strengths and their weaknesses, and
to be able to establish the gaps, from which you
can see ways how best to improve your respective
workplace safety performance.

Business Case for Safety Excellence
Corporate Responsibility
Obligation to protect employees and the community
Complying with regulations
License to operate
Strengthening and maintaining good relationship with
key stakeholders & gain confidence of investors
Risk Reduction
Saving lives and reduce injury and property damage
Reducing business interruptions
Reducing litigation costs
Creating Sustained Value

Increasing productivity
Lowering insurance costs

Impact of Standards and Regulations
Government is responsible to create and enforce regulations

Laws and regulations are major tools for protecting people and
the environment
Sets out the general duties for employers, employees and members of
the public
Make arrangements for implementing the health and safety
measures identified as necessary (identified through risk assessment)
Identify specific (major) hazards and risks and set out specific action
that must be taken
Regulations are goal-setting hence to instill self-regulation /

preventive safety culture.
Major government agencies involved in creating and enforcing
safety-related standards and regulations:
Department of Safety and Health (DOSH)
Department of Environment (DOE)
National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)

Prevention vs. Protection
Standards and regulations could be

assigned into 2 categories:
Prevention: aspects of legislation which

emphasize on guidelines or requirement
for preventing damage to or loss of
either people or environment
Protection: acts or regulations to

prosecute and penalize culprits

Purpose: prevent, mitigate catastrophic releases

Emphasis on management systems:
a holistic approach that integrates technologies, procedures,
and management practices

OSHA PSM Application

Toxic or reactive chemical(s) are present in processes at or above
a listed threshold quantity (Appendix A Material example as
