Who is Responsible for Public Safety? Both disciplines are involved in innovation and both are responsible for public safety. This is the duty of all engineers: Hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public. This may lead to the belief that they have no professional obligations towards public safety. Advocating for the safety, health, and welfare of the public.

This blog post continues our series on Cyber Safety where we have explored various standards, frameworks and guidelines to address management vulnerabilities with respect to achieving cyber safety objectives consider steps you can take to select which approach is best for you to start improving your cyber safety So the best place to start is with an assessment of what you want to keep safe, your safety goals, and Develop a comprehensive improvement roadmap that meets your cyber safety objectives.

This blog post is a continuation in our series on Cyber Safety. explore several guidelines, standards, and frameworks available to help organizations realize their cyber safety one-size fits all strategy intended to be adapted by organizations based on their level of risk and safety The overall intent of C2M2 is to help organizations assess and advance their cyber safety capabilities Answering these questions will the topic of our next blog post on cyber safety so stay tuned.

Adopting a Safety Management System (SMS) has typically required significant resources, large teams, and expensive technologies and expertise to establish let alone achieve effectiveness at improving safety of a combined managed quality and safety program. Risk-based assessments were incorporated into all safety and quality critical processes. personal safety in remote locations.

The adoption of ANSI / API Recommended Practice 1173 - Pipeline Safety Management Systems will help improve overall pipeline safety.

PHMSA's Pipeline Safety Program has also issued a stay of enforcement to state pipeline safety program And when this is applied to Pipeline Safety Management Systems the emergent property of safety (or protection Essential Properties For an Effective Pipeline Safety Program Effective Pipeline Safety programs are evidenced by the achieving and advancing safety outcomes. , and create a culture where safety is valued.

Safety is changing and with it regulations, standards, and strategies. This is particularly the case in the area of people or worker safety. along with new approaches to safety under names such as: Safety I & II Behavioral Based Safety Safety Professionals ASSP (formerly ASSE) Safety 2017 conference. The world of safety is changing and as some have said, "it's about time!"

The Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS) recently published a monograph that provides insights for managing Process Safety during the COVID-19 pandemic and other similar crises. The top three elements of highest importance are: Process Safety Culture, Asset Integrity & Reliability Occupational safety and health aspects are not the focus in this document.

the number and severity of security breaches, digital factories could benefit from risk-based process safety Process Safety is a combination of engineering and management skills focused on preventing catastrophic Process safety practices have evolved over decades of experience and many lessons learned. Process Safety is focused on the identification of hazards and their effective removal and or mitigation Safety barriers (i.e. risk controls) are put in place to guard against unexpected releases and are designed

facility changes is important to most companies and is a central part of every process and pipeline safety Ensuring the continuity of safety-critical roles during personnel changes will help eliminate gaps in your safety program so that incidents do not occur. Unfortunately, many companies either do not track or are even aware of which roles are safety-critical Continuity of safety-critical roles is essential to maintain safety programs.

contributes to keeping the value chain safe from various risk including: quality risk, occupational safety This is similar to Safety II (Holnagel, 2017), and Deming's work that defects are caused by normal causes They are impacted by the decisions of all of the actors – politicians, managers, safety officers and Threats to safety are usually caused by multiple contributing factors , not just a single catastrophic Threats to safety usually result from a lack of vertical integration (i.e. mismatches) across levels

for Compliance In the new landscape of artificial intelligence, the pursuit of robust regulatory and safety mechanisms has led to an interesting idea: apply safety labels to AI systems similar to those used in Why AI Safety is Different The prevailing approach to meeting compliance obligations (ex. safety, security Therefore, effective AI safety cannot be reduced to a simple label based on a point-in-time validation In this field, "freezing" a model is a critical strategy to ensure consistent performance and safety.
