This is not meant to be a trick question, but many think it is. A close examination of the specific wording in the PHA element of the RMP rule will quickly identify DIFFERENT wording than what is in OSHA’s PSM std (just another example of how these standards are NOT identical!).

A great resource to help develop a Safety Management System (SMS) is DOE’s Integrated Safety Management System. They offer dozens of documents explaining each element and how it is intended to function within the SMS. DOE has been using this SMS since 1996 with world-class results. I love the structure and have used aspects of their model for decades. The one drawback...

NOTE: Members should also read Process Safety and our pipe flanges (type of bolts, threads showing, etc.) Some may claim this to be a trick question.
