Process Safety Management (PSM) Services

OVERVIEW

Protecting plant operations from unexpected releases of toxic, reactive,
flammable, or explosive liquids and gases is critical to ensuring safe and
healthy workplaces across the U.S. As mandated by the Occupational Safety
and Health Act of 1970, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s
Process Safety Management (PSM) standard 29 CFR 1910.119 is designed to
effectively integrate safe principles, procedures, and management practices
to minimize the risk for catastrophic events in the workplace.
