What is a Process Safety Management (PSM)?

PSM : Process Safety Management System

Process safety data, process risk analysis, safe operation plan and emergency action plan etc. based on Article 49-2 of the Industrial Safety and Health Law for business sites holding harmful hazard facilities where the risk of serious industrial accident occurrence is large It is a system to prevent serious industrial accidents by creating a report of the review, review and confirmation.

Process safety management Component

  • Process safety data
  • Assessment of process risk
  • Safe driving plan
