Probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) and probabilistic safety targets provide risk metrics to support decisions related to nuclear safety and to strengthen their basis. Many risk informed applications have been successfully employed for purposes of considering and comparing the safety of alternative design solutions and operating practice. Also, targets set for the probability of core damage and off-site releases have been found useful for assessing safety in an integrated manner. However, in any application the strengths and weaknesses of a PSA must be understood and taken into account.
Experience has shown that an integrated decision making process, including deterministic and probabilistic analyses together with good engineering practices, consideration of operating experience and sound managerial arrangements, is effective in refining and improving safe design and safe operations of nuclear installations.
This position paper of the SIL Platform (www.nen.nl) indicates that it is common practice to operate process plants at maximum performance, optimum capacity and minimum risk levels. A Safety Integrity Level (SIL) is often determined through e.g. a Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) [1] [2]
[3], which is a means to quantify risks. However, LOPA is usually not the starting point for quantifying risks. This is often done with the use of a Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM). Contrary to LOPA and SIL, the use and type of RAM is not clearly pre-scribed or defined.
The intention of this guide is to provide guidance on RAM and show the relations between RAM, LOPA and SIL levels. What are the pitfalls? What is usually applied? What is often missed? It is not the intention to explain in detail the various available risk assessment techniques.
How to arrive at a SIL level in the correct manner leading to a qualitatively proper design and implementation is described in the EN-IEC 61511 standard [4]. Achieving a SIL requires amongst other aspects:
Correct identification of Safety Instrumented Functions (SIF)
Correct determination of required SIL rating of the various SIFs.
This guide strives to improve this quality by improving the quality of the risk assessment(s) providing input to the SIL determination. The targeted audience of this guide is the Dutch Process Industry Sector.

An Organisation-wide Investigation into the Human Factors-Related Causes of H...Lloyd's Register Energy
Presentation from Jason Devereux at Offshore Europe 2013. Paper written by Jenny Gilroy and Derek Dumolo of Lloyd's Register Constiling's Human Factors team.
Hydrocarbon releases (HCR) are a major problem offshore, and most importantly are seen as a direct precursor to potential major accidents (MAs) (Oil and Gas UK, 2010). The UK HSE believe that of the occurring HCRs, 50-70% have causes linked in part or in whole to “things people do (or don’t do) when designing, maintaining and operating systems”, (Step Change in Safety, 2010) i.e. issues associated with Human Factors (HF).
An offshore operator contracted LR Consulting to conduct an independent HF-focussed organisational assessment into the underlying contributory factors to HCRs on their platforms, in order to support their own internal initiatives to reduce HCRs. The aim of LR Consulting’s assessment was to help the organisation confirm and identify the key areas of focus in order to combat HCRs and prioritise further actions going forward.
LR Scandpower adopted a systematic approach to investigate the HF contributions to HCRs on the organisation’s platforms, including a Thematic Analysis of past incident data, offshore interviews and onshore interviews with staff and detailed analysis of findings to identify common emergent themes issues. Eight key areas were identified as priorities for further action, and LR Consulting provided the operator with recommendations for improvements and/or remedial actions to deal with identified contributory factors
This presentation will explain the approach followed by LR Consulting and the findings from the study, including the key Human Factors causal factors that were identified. It will also highlight the key lessons learned that are considered to be potentially relevant to the wider offshore sector.
Is your safety audit process stale with the organization's business plan?
Avoid the common pitfalls that derail most safety audits.
Identify policies and conditions that cause loss and incidents with the examples here in this presentation.
Build the necessary elements of the written audit document.
Author John Newquist has worked with several of the Fortune 500 companies in auditing safety management systems and best practices to prevent injuries and losses for the last 30 years. This was one session presented in a day long seminar in June 2013.
Depending on the nature of the task, the level of safety management training required will vary from general safety familiarization to expert level for safety specialists, for example:
a) Corporate safety training for all staff,
b) Training aimed at management’s safety responsibilities,
c) Training for operational personnel (such as pilots, maintenance engineers, dispatchers / FOO’s and personnel with apron or ramp duties), and
d) Training for aviation safety specialists (such as the Safety Management System and Flight Data Analysts).
The scope of SMS training must be appropriate to each individual’s roles and responsibilities within the operation. Training should follow a building-block approach. As part of the ICAO requirements, an operator must provide training to its operational personnel (including cabin crew), managers and supervisors, senior managers, and the accountable executive for the SMS.
Training should address the specific role that cabin crew members play in the operation. This includes, but is not limited to training with regards to:
a) Unit 1 SMS fundamentals and overview of the operator’s SMS;
b) Unit 2 Safety policy;
c) Unit 3 Hazard identification and reporting; and
d) Unit 4 Safety Communication.
e) Unit 5 Review of Company Safety Management
f) Unit 6 Review of Safety Reporting

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Objectives for Human Factors Integration
To define a feasible role for people
• HFI helps to specify the role for people, the manpower requirements, job design and training
plans.
To specify usable interfaces and equipment
• HFI helps to define requirements for the usability of workspaces, equipment and control system
interfaces and to support their verification during construction leading to lean commissioning and
sustainable performance.
To ensure the reliability of human performance
• HFI helps to assess the human error potential within the system, its processes and procedures,
and to identify workplace hazards for personnel; and so to meet the human factors requirements
for regulatory compliance as well as providing operational assurance.

Editor's Notes
The Lloyd’s Register Group comprises charities & non-charitable companies, with the latter supporting thecharities in their main goal of enhancing the safety of life and property atsea, on land and in the air - for the benefit of the public and the environment.
The interactions between the three components are crucial to the success of the system, and human factors professionals are concerned with the optimisation of the organisational component and the interaction of the organisation with the other areas. The organisational element is optimised through the specification of appropriate job roles, the assurance of competence, and by matching manpower levels to workload demands. The interactions between the organisation and assets (i.e. People, technology and equipment) are supported through user-centred design to ensure that all plant is fit for purpose. Lastly, processes and systems of work are put in place to control human error and to protect people from the hazards present in the work environment. In this way we work to ensure that the integrated systems of people, plant and process function effectively and efficiently to achieve their intended purpose and avoid doing harm to people or the environment.
Each dimension is made up of factors and items. A Dimension can have more than one factor (for example manpower and fatigue management are two aspects of workload). Items from factors can also contribute to anoather dimension (for example having a responsible person in charge of training will contribute to both training and leadership performance.
