Common Hurdles, Benefits, and Costs for Fully Implementing Process Safety Worldwide

Process safety is implemented around the world and most of those sites do not have government regulations for compliance to push them along. The hurdles for effective (full) implementation appear to be roughly common from country to country, and site to site. This paper summarizes the lessons learned from multiple companies/sites around the world. Specifically, the paper compares hurdles to effective implementation and how each company crossed these hurdles. We also will update earlier papers on the costs and benefits of effective implementation of process safety.
