Chemical process plants nowadays have become complicated because of the huge demand of various petroleum, chemical, and pharmaceutical products. The industrial processes have become more dangerous with the increased use of hazardous materials, high pressure processes, toxic gases, complicated chemical reactions etc. Concerns have grown to estimate and quantify risk of major chemical accidents.Systematically identifying major hazards arising from the complex and the dangerous process plant and the assessment of their likelihood and severity are the key steps to establish which parts of the plant need special attention.

This course covers the main theme of Industrial Safety & Health, which includes: basic safety definitions, loss causation model, role of management, safety legislations, accident investigation, risk assessment, risk management, safety control, inherent safety, scope and foundations, environment and health, and workplace health.

 

 

This course is an introduction to concepts and techniques of ‘Industrial Safety &Health” applied to prevent and mitigate accidents and associated losses in industrial aspects as well as the aspect of occupational health & safety. Accidents happened in the industries are preventable and not immitigable.Our central problem is not to address safety features properly and as well as not following proper procedures at workplace during operation and maintenance. The objective of this course is to learn different concepts of ‘Industrial Safety & Health” and how to apply those in real application to prevent and mitigate accidents and minimize losses associated with people, property, process and environment.

 

• Learn the ability to practice safety management in industrial workplaces and also in daily life.
• Understand loss prevention and loss management techniques (foundational knowledge).
• Think critically, creatively, and practically to achieve optimal risk analysis, risk assessment, and risk controls (application learning).
• Students would be able to develop a sense of responsibility to save others’ lives; “due diligence” (caring).
• At the end of the course students would be capable to analyze data and then would be able to utilize required data in safety and risk management application.
• Students would be able to deal hazards with proper safety management tools.
• At the end of the course students would be able to communicate and educate employees to ensure the development of a safety culture within a particular workplace.
• Students will learn scope and foundations in environment and health.
