The introduction to process safety training course teaches trainee the concepts of process safety and how to apply good practices at their facilities.

Process safety incidents can have catastrophic effects and can result in multiple injuries and fatalities, as well as substantial economic, property and environmental damage. Significant incidents on process plants in the past have shown that incidents can be caused by failures at any level and discipline associated with their design and operation.
