NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management
12 September 2022 - 15 September 2022
Introduction

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and NEBOSH have
collaborated to develop a new specialist Occupational Safety and
Health Qualification specifically for process industries. The
qualification combines the advanced technical 'high hazard'
expertise of HSE with NEBOSH's ability to deliver strong vocational
OSH qualifications.
The course focuses on the prevention of catastrophic accidents
and near misses associated with loss of containment of energy or
dangerous substances such as chemicals and hydrocarbons.
The course will cover:
- Establishment of process management systems
- Asset management and maintenance strategies
- Start-up and shutdown of process plant
- Performance standards for safety critical systems and
equipment

- Hazards and controls for:
- Chemical reactions
- Bulk storage of dangerous substances
- Fire and explosion
- Purpose and features of emergency plans
The tutors have a wide range of process safety
experience gained through HSE's activities in the onshore chemicals
and offshore oil & gas industries.
Candidates are assessed by a 90 minute multiple choice
examination which must be accessed and completed via NEBOSH's
Online Assessment Platform within a 24-hour window. The date is set
by NEBOSH and will be within 4 weeks of you attending the
course.

The qualification aims to provide holders with the knowledge and

People from all around the world who work in process industries

manage their process safety responsibilities.
This qualification is not designed for process safety/chemical
engineers with extensive operational experience of working within
the processing environment.
