The process safety competency guidance expands on the established work of others. However, existing documents have tended to be generic and stop short of actually defining different levels of competency for different roles within an organization. The lead process safety metrics guidance focuses on the operational phase of an organization. It will help to develop consistency in lead process safety metrics that will allow for effective benchmarking.
ISC director, Trish Kerin, says these first edition documents are the result of 12 months of work by a wide range of industry members. She adds that these are living documents that are expected to evolve over time and be updated in the future. Further guidance documents are expected to be published in the future once a need is identified by ISC members.
“We invite organizations who have an established sound process safety competency system and metrics, to please share your example to help us improve this guidance for everyone,” says Kerin.
