OSHA's Process Safety Management (PSM) standard requires a team of experts from various fields to assemble process information and perform a hazard analysis of each covered process operated at a facility. KERAMIDA's highly experienced industrial hygienists, engineers, and process experts work closely with plant personnel to complete both steps of this process and enhance process safety for clients who handle highly hazardous chemicals.

Our PSM Consulting Services include:

Since facilities that store or use a defined "highly hazardous chemical" must comply with OSHA's PSM regulations as well as the quite similar U.S. EPA risk management program (RMP) regulations, KERAMIDA also offers assistance with EPA Risk Management Plans.

PSM Compliance Benefits

Compliance with the Process Safety Management (PSM) standard not only helps protect the health and safety of employees by preventing the unwanted releases of highly hazardous chemicals into areas that could expose workers and others to serious hazards, but it also benefits businesses by minimizing damage to facility equipment and buildings in the event of a major chemical release. 


Process Safety Information (PSI)

A complete and accurate collection of process safety information (PSI) is crucial to the PSM program and needed in order to effectively implement all other aspects of the PSM standard. Detailed and correct PSI is not only essential for compliance, but it also helps businesses identify and recognize the hazards involved in their processes.
