PSM Program Development

Consulting

Companies that handle highly hazardous chemicals in excess of threshold quantities must comply with OSHA’s Process Safety Management (PSM) standard, 29 CFR 1910.119 and EPA’s Risk Management (RM) Program rule, 40 CFR Part 68.

 PSM and RMP are performance-based regulations and compliance with them can change over time as industry practices and regulatory expectations change.  These are different from other specification-based regulations that spell out requirements. Many decisions must be made by companies on how to meet PSM and RMP requirements and what levels of performance are appropriate. As technical improvements are made, OSHA’s and EPA’s expectations for performance increase. Companies must stay abreast of these developments and adjust their programs accordingly. Many companies find it is more cost effective to seek outside expertise when doing so.
