Process Safety · Work within the barriers

Operating integrity

Plant is operated inside its safe operating envelope, and work is controlled so that barriers are not bypassed, defeated or overloaded. When a barrier is overridden, the override is authorised and controlled. When prevention fails, emergency response mitigates the consequences.

“Does this document create a barrier against a major accident, keep one working, keep work inside one, or build the people who do?”

  • Operating philosophy, manuals and operating procedures
  • Control of work, permit to work and isolations
  • Override of safeguarding systems; operational risk assessment
  • Contractor, marine and aviation operations at the worksite
  • Emergency response, pollution response and incident reporting
  • Maintenance of the barriers themselves (Asset integrity)
  • Occupational safety that does not bear on a major accident (outside this lens)
