Although compliance is a joint effort by all who work in a facility where a PSM program is required, the use of a Corporate Environmental Manager working hand in hand with Health and Safety Manager and PSM Coordinators/Refrigeration Manager greatly enhances your opportunity for a successful program.

Strong adherence to the RMP/PSM standards and Environmental Regulations has historically equated to safer work-places as documented by EPA. Fatalities and overall accidental releases have drastically reduced over the years, due in part to stricter compliance adherence.

OSHA is currently partaking in “Advanced OSHA PSM Training” courses to better understand industries responsibilities to the PSM program and proper documentation practices. It is therefore imperative that we, the industry, lead the way in demonstrating the proper and safe way to manage the Hazardous chemicals we utilize in our business.
