Major Hazard InstallationsA Safety Case Regime fromCompliance to Commitment

SAFETY CASE POSSIBILITIES

A Safety Case provides you a summarised demonstration of the way you manage major hazards in your installation

SAFETY CASE POSSIBILITIES

Organization-wide Safety Case implementation will improve…

Collaboration Communication Planning Alignment

…with multiple stakeholders.

SAFETY CASE POSSIBILITIES

Over the lifecycle of an installation, this can significantly help stakeholders understand different components of the facility by providing a platform for coordinating - in a structured manner - the impact of change

Key to determining how we intend to harness change in the future to drive success is the way we:

• Initiate our internal implementation discussions• Focus resource development• Review our current processes and system readiness• Develop our communication plans and stakeholder interfaces

SAFETY CASE POSSIBILITIES

To support the implementation of a Safety Case regime, we spoke at length to a broad group of professionals across many organisations, industries and countries…

PROFESSIONAL ENGAGEMENT

To insert an image click on icon or leave blankThis is what we learned…

1. The concept of a ‘Safety Case’ is adopted in different ways

For some organisations its about:• Demonstrating that existing processes

and systems are in compliance• Working towards an organisations

future where people’s roles and responsibilities will be entirely different

c

THE CONCEPT OF A ‘SAFETY CASE’ IS ADOPTED IN DIFFERENT WAYS

As a company you’ll need to define what a Safety Case will mean to the way you operate and demonstrate continued integrity in your facility.

What does this mean to my facilities?

• It will reduce risk exposure to your people.• Provides assurance on integrity of SCE

equipment.• Eliminates redundant inspection and

maintenance work.• Reduction in costs, manhours, logistics,

procurement of materials and services.• Improved visibility of asset and SCE integrity

status.

2. When something is new, there is a degree of nervousness…

For example, nervousness around:• Uptake and the extent of work that is

required to ensure your license to operate is not impacted

• Initiating the changes too early

c

WHEN SOMETHING IS NEW, THERE IS A DEGREE OF NERVOUSNESS

The longer you delay your commitment the greater the anxiousness will be and the more exposed you become to the threat of business disruption.

3. There will be barriers to change

• Organisations want the value and usefulness of a Safety Case to be demonstrated before they make the change

• Part of the problem to successful implementation is in the invisibility of potential gaps within their existing processes - the lack of physicality and palpability makes it feel very ‘unknown’

• Belief it is important to focus on the purely HSE compliance requirements, rather than a wider design and operations integrity envelope

• Sense of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it

c

THERE WILL BE BARRIERS TO CHANGE

Organisations want the value and usefulness of a Safety Case to be demonstrated before they make the change

4. People are the agents of transformation

• People are the agents of any organisational transformation - without their input, nothing will change

• A Safety Case regime will have a ripple effect throughout your organisation - some people will take to it like a duck to water, while others will feel like they’re sinking

c

PEOPLE ARE THE AGENTS OF TRANSFORMATION

With foresight, nobody will drown
