In response to new information about the health risk of chemical and concern expressed by academia, labor, and industry, chemical regulatory framework under Industrial Safety and Health Act was completely restructured in Year 2003 to be more systematic and to meet the particular needs in Korea. The history and the current status of chemical regulatory framework in the Republic of Korea are revi...

This paper presents a process for the stepwise refinement of safety code assertions from identified system hazards. The code assertions are intended for use in system safety verification. The development of the safety code assertions increases the feasibility of using code verification tools such as SPARK Examiner in the safety verification of large software-intensive systems. The process is de...

The fatal consequences of industrial incidents have made evident the need for suitable tools to develop inherently safer process design options. Traditionally, in a project, evaluation safety aspects is left analysis after detailed has been completed. This approach leads use control loops, barriers and protection layers as only ways prevent reduce possible outcomes. An alternative this applicat...

This presentation will review a few public perceptions of safety in chemical plants and refineries, and will compare these plant workplace risks to some of the more traditional occupations. The central theme of this paper is to provide a "within-the-fence" view of many of the process safety practices that world class plants perform to pro-actively protect people, property, profits as well as th...
