Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) Management Competence

Identify hazard as the potential for harm in the workplace, distinguish it from risk, and classify hazards into biological, chemical, stored ergonomic, physical, psychosocial, and safety categories.

Identify and compare physical, biological, chemical, and psychosocial hazards in the workplace, and understand how PPE and work design and management mitigate risks and affect health outcomes.

Define risk and hazard, assess exposure, and evaluate probability and severity to prevent harm, then use hazard identification, risk analysis and evaluation, and risk control to reduce incidents.

Conduct a hazard analysis and operability (hazop) study to review a process systematically, identify deviations, consequences, and safeguards, and reduce risk across continuous or batch processes.

Conduct a hazard identification study by gathering project information and blueprints, agreeing on client standards, and forming a study team with a leader, recorder, and defined terms of reference.

Identify hazards and top events, analyze threats and scenarios, map consequences, and build a bow tie diagram with preventative and recovery barriers, escalation factors, and responsibility for barrier effectiveness.

Explore hazard and operability study (hazop) as a structured, systematic examination that identifies design and operability risks by reviewing process nodes with a multidisciplinary team using guide word prompts.

Form a multidisciplinary hazard team to analyze processes and P&ID and op notes, define safe operating limits with guide words, and establish controls, monitoring, and communication for safer operations.

Explore the four-phase hazards and operability study (hazop) process, where a multidisciplinary team defines scope, prepares data, examines process steps, and documents follow-up actions.

Evaluate high consequence scenarios with layers of protection analysis (LOPA) to determine risk reduction, independence of protective layers, probabilities of occurrence, and severity.

Explore layer of protection analysis (LOPA) as a quantitative extension of process hazard analysis, using initiating events and independent protection layers to define safety instrumented functions and systems per CCPS.

Assemble a team of engineers, operators, maintenance supervisors, and other staff to lead a process asat analysis and apply bow tie analysis and failure model effects analysis to identify hazards.
