The competent authority expects major accident hazard sites to take all measures necessary to prevent and mitigate the consequences of major accidents. This includes Human Factors. This course is an introduction to a key Human Factors tool – Human Reliability Analysis (sometimes known as Safety Critical Task Analysis or Human Failure Analysis) – and is targeted at personnel wanting to know more about the topic, including those charged with ensuring Human Reliability Analysis is conducted at their site, those who wish to lead simple HRAs, team members who participate in HRAs, and personnel who commission and procure HRAs for their site.
The course aims to provide a working overview of OBRA qualitative and quantitative methodologies, to provide attendees with the knowledge to understand, query or even develop OBRAs as well as providing an update on the 2020 guidance.
This course will provide an introduction to the interdisciplinary and wide-reaching subject of process safety. The course will define process safety and explain the regulatory and legal requirements as set out by the competent authorities. The course will cover the key process safety principles from leadership, hazards identification and risk assessment, risk management through to review and improvement.
The incident investigation good practices training will be in the form of a one-day course consisting of presentations, workshop exercises and will provide learners with an understanding of good practices.
***This seminar will be delivered online. Note: This joint event is excluded from the CIA member free event place policy.*** Chemical regulatory policy in the UK has not progressed forward as much as we would have expected it to since the UK left the EU – this has resulted in uncertainty for businesses! Recognising that the operating environment for chemicals regulations in the UK has changed for both UK regulators and business, and considering that the EU and international policy landscape will continue to evolve, industry more than ever needs to keep abreast of chemical regulatory policy developments and be able to navigate the uncertainties. This seminar provides the platform for this.
***This workshop will be delivered online and split over 2 half day morning sessions on Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd May 2025*** Classification is the key process that ensures labels and safety data sheets (SDS) provide accurate information on hazards, helping recipients use your chemical products safely. Understanding the principles and requirements of the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) Regulation is crucial to making sure your labels and SDS are correct and compliant with the regulations. This workshop aims to give you an understanding of your duties under both EU and GB CLP, as well as practical skills to help you classify and label your products correctly.
