    Process safety culture refers to the values and behaviors an organization uses to manage process safety risks. A well-developed process safety culture is reflected in a group's actions and expectations of newcomers. An organization's approach to process control failures can be linked to cultural deficiencies, such as not establishing high process safety standards, maintaining a sense of vulnerability, ensuring open communication, or providing timely responses to issues. A sound process safety culture integrates safety as a core value, focuses on potential failures to understand and control risks, and seeks continuous improvement through learning from experience.

    Process safety culture

    Sushant Chaturvedi
    What is process safety culture
    • It is combination of values and behaviours that
    determine the manner in which process safety is
    managed
    • It lies in the answers to questions like
    1. How we do things around here
    2. What we expect here
    3. How we behave when no one is watching.
    • A well developed culture is one in which the values
    are reflected in the groups actions and newcomers
    are expected to endorse these values in order to
    remain part of the group
    • How an organization approached process control risk
    issues and process safety management system failures
    can often be linked to cultural deficiencies
    • Some indicators of sound process safety culture
    1) Establish and enforce high standards of process safety
    performance
    2) Maintain a sense of vulnerability
    3) Ensure open and effective communication
    4) Provide timely response to process safety issues and
    concerns
