| "A Risk-Based Approach to Process Risk Management" Presented at ASSE |
| |
AcuTechs David Moore was the featured speaker at the
Bakersfield, California, chapter meeting of the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) on August 5, 1999. The presentation explained the merits of
developing a risk-based, decision-making process within a company to assist management in making challenging risk decisions with a more solid basis. The
problem of relying solely on a minimum compliance regulatory model for defining a risk management process was explained. In particular, the EPA RMP Hazard
Assessment may lead to questions or concerns from the public on the hazards that were reported to be possible. Since the risk of this exposure was not
analyzed or explained, only a worst case and alternative case scenario presented, they may be unsure of the acceptability of the risks. Company management
may not have a complete understanding of the more complete risk exposure to the community. Progressive companies are realizing the value of better defining
the risks and in making more informed decisions on the need for additional risk reduction measures using modern risk assessment methods.
