Process Safety Management
National Summary

With the Process Safety Management (PSM) standards, OSHA requires a comprehensive look at each process that uses or emits a listed chemical. The intent is to make workers aware of the dangers and increase worker safety. Much of the regulation on process safety management is concerned with written documentation.
