Any unplanned undesirable event, be it a breakdown, production delay, missed delivery, near miss, quality issue, accident or incident, is an opportunity to learn about what went wrong and so prevent a re-occurrence. This course will take delegates through some principles of RCA and incident investigation processes, highlight pitfalls and challenges likely to be encountered in implementing effective RCA processes, and then provide a methodology for undertaking effective RCAs.
An introduction to Lean by an experienced process industries practitioner to give a non-automotive view of Lean to show how it may be effectively implemented in a chemicals environment to provide operational efficiencies leading to competitive advantages – lead time reduction, cost reduction, increased capacity, improved flexibility.
The conference is aimed at all companies involved in the manufacture, use or supply of Hydrofluoric Acid including chemical, engineering, and oil refining businesses. The programme developed by CIA’s HF Sector Network is specifically intended to be of direct benefit to managers, SHE departments, engineers, supervisors, operators, laboratory staff and medical/nursing staff – and also to suppliers of equipment for HF users. If you work with HF, this conference is a ‘must’ for the latest information and an essential part of managing HF safely and protecting people.
***This workshop will be delivered online and split over 2 half day morning sessions on Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th March 2024*** The REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of CHemicals) Regulation affects almost every chemical substance that you manufacture, import or use to make your products and to run your processes. REACHReady's most popular workshop, this introductory workshop is an excellent place to start for those who are beginning to define their REACH obligations, aimed at business and regulatory managers and practitioners working in companies that make, import or use chemicals and for those who are new to the regulation. Ideal for anyone who needs to understand more about their obligations under the EU27 and UK REACH Regulations, and also of interest to suppliers of substances and mixtures who are looking to support their EU and UK customers on REACH.
***This seminar will be delivered online*** 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.
