A critical aspect of any system safety program entails the identification of hazards, assessment of the risks associated with the identified hazards, the determination of effective mitigations to control the risks to acceptable levels, and verifying and validating the implementation of those mitigations. The process required to successfully identify and mitigate hazards is an ongoing activity beginning as early in the design phase as practical and continuing throughout the project development phase, and often extending through the operational, maintenance and disposal phases. This class addresses:?
This class emphasizes interaction and interdependence of system safety with other safety related activities, such as OSHA compliance, Human Factors engineering, Quality Control and Reliability Engineering – highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each field in achieving a safe system.
Special attention will be given to address strengths and limitations of system safety efforts within a design team, explicitly identifying the importance of others in the team in achieving a safe system. Participants will be able to identify key steps to the identification of hazards and the development of systems of mitigations that are effective and affordable within the overall technical and cost constraints of the overall project.
?Course concentration will be upon tailored, specific, focused effort vs. generic system safety efforts.
This class is a core class being presented and developed for repeated presentation by the ISSS as part of an ongoing curriculum and career development for system safety and will be a regular part of conference tracks.
