A contract company that has never worked at your site is the only contract company technically capable of performing a critical task at your site. The contract company's safety record is well below your company's safety performance criteria. What activities do you take while they are working on-site? (select all that apply)

• A.If significant safety issues occur, stop all of the contract company work at the site and discuss/retrain as needed
• B.Conduct frequent observations of the worksite and stop any unsafe work, then provide timely feedback to the contract company on the observed safety issues
• C.Meet with the management of the contract company after the completion of the project to discuss their safety performance onsite
• D.Participate in job pre-plan activities daily with the contract company workers to understand the work they will be performing and their plan to do it safely
• E.Investigate and document any safety issues with the contract company activities

A vessel has a rupture disc and pressure relief valve in series to protect against high pressure in the vessel.
There is a pressure gauge on the pipe between the rupture disc and the relief valve. The gauge normally reads zero. As part of regular maintenance inspections, these pressure gauges are supposed to be routinely checked.

Today, a pressure of nearly 50 psig (~3.5 barg) was observed by an operator. There is a significant hazard now. Identify the hazard and discuss which elements of Risk-Based Process Safety could have been involved in the development of this situation.

• A.The system is operating normally under transient conditions
• B.The rupture disc may have failed or leaked, compromising the relief system and creating overpressure risk
• C.The pressure gauge is faulty and can be ignored
• D.No hazard exists because the relief valve will always protect the system

Which is the main objective for investigating process safety incidents?

• A.Improve the Control of Work system
• B.Reduce the number of incidents and improve plant performance
• C.Optimize inspection and maintenance
• D.Determine root causes and avoid recurrence
