KERAMIDA's team of process safety engineers and specialists provide assistance with the development, direction, and completion of site PSM documentation.
OSHA's Process Safety Management (PSM) standard requires a team of experts from various fields to assemble process information and perform a hazard analysis of each covered process operated at a facility. KERAMIDA's highly experienced industrial hygienists, engineers, and toxicologist work closely with plant personnel to complete both steps of this process and enhance process safety for clients who handle highly hazardous chemicals.
Our PSM Consulting Services include:
Compliance Audits
Process Safety Information (PSI)
Process Hazard Analysis (PHA)
Development of written plans
Training program for employees involved in PSM
Short term / Long term assistance
Since facilities that store or use a defined "highly hazardous chemical" must comply with OSHA's PSM regulations as well as the quite similar U.S. EPA risk management program (RMP) regulations, KERAMIDA also offers assistance with EPA Risk Management Plans.

PSM Compliance Benefits
Compliance with the Process Safety Management (PSM) standard not only helps protect the health and safety of employees by preventing the unwanted releases of highly hazardous chemicals into areas that could expose workers and others to serious hazards, but it also benefits businesses by minimizing damage to facility equipment and buildings in the event of a major chemical release.
Process Safety Information (PSI)
A complete and accurate collection of process safety information (PSI) is crucial to the PSM program and needed in order to effectively implement all other aspects of the PSM standard. Detailed and correct PSI is not only essential for compliance, but it also helps businesses identify and recognize the hazards involved in their processes.
