About this title

Synopsis

This title is part of the "BP Process Safety" series. Poor control of work has resulted in many accidents and fatalities over the years and this book proposes a formal approach to manage work-related risks through a Control of Work Standard - a procedural form of control, consisting of 12 elements. The standard, developed by BP, covers construction, maintenance, demolition, re-mediation and other aspects of safety control, reducing the risks workers in the oil and chemical industries are exposed to, as well as serving to decrease the potential harm to third parties.
