The Importance of Major Hazard Leadership

The Health and Safety Executive and industry have come together to promote 2019 as the “Year of Major Hazard Leadership”.

To this end, they organised a ‘COMAH Strategic Forum Open Meeting’ for senior managers of sites with the potential to cause a major hazard accident. It included presentations from the Environment Agency and several Trade Associations – including the Tank Storage Association.

The aim of the open meeting was to explain what the HSE’s COMAH regulations are all about, and what they offer to business.

Our good friends at the TSA offered a fascinating insight into what they do, and about the importance of Process Safety Management.

This sort of information is gold-dust for business managers working in potentially hazardous industries.
