OSHA Process Safety Management is something that few people are aware of, even within organizations where implementation is required. Process Safety Management (PSM) practices in business and industry are governed by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) standard 29CFR 1910.119T, which pertains to the safe handling, transport, and storage of highly hazardous chemicals (HHC). If your company has undergone an audit and needs to implement or improve your PSM practices, or if you are new to this area of business, Maintenance Innovators, Inc. can help. We are passionate about OSHA process safety management, with experience in both PSM program development and process auditing. 
 
Our efforts are designed to not only make sure your company is in compliance with these important safety regulations, but also to ensure that your organization is safe and that your safety processes are proactive and rigorous. As Ben Franklin observed, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” When dealing with hazardous substances, it is far better to prevent problems than to have to solve them under emergency conditions. 
As part of our approach to implementing a safe and reliable OSHA Process Safety Management PSM program, we also bring focus to your maintenance and storeroom practices. Organizing and streamlining these practices with an eye toward maintenance and reliability enhances the following elements of the PSM:  
 
  • Process Safety Information (PSI) 
  • Training 
  • Contractors 
  • Mechanical Integrity (MI) 
  • Hot Work Permit 
  • Management Of Change (MOC)

If you work in the engineering, maintenance or safety fields, and if your organization deals with any of the 155 OSHA identified Highly Hazardous Chemicals (HHCs) that exceed the OSHA threshold for a PSM program, you may feel overwhelmed. That’s understandable, since both the regulations laid out by the standard and the analysis, documentation and reporting processes that must be completed at regular intervals can be daunting. This is especially true considering that these tasks must be done in addition to your regular workload. Many companies don’t have staff with the skills and expertise needed to complete this process successfully.
