RiskView for Mine Safety Management Systems

RiskView is used by mining and processing operators for their risk management and critical control verifications.

We are prepared for the new Work Health and Safety (Resources and MajorHazards) Act, and the new compliance requirements it will create for miners.

RiskView will play a major part in the creation of Mine Safety Management Systems (“safety cases” for mine operators).

• Outline MSMS: supported using HAZID hazard studies

• MSMS Risk Assessments: supported using HAZOPs and LOPA

• Principal Hazard Management Plans: supported using HAZOP & LOPA reporting

• Critical Control Management: supported using the Verification Wizard

Our clients are prepared for upcoming changes

Our clients are prepared for upcoming changes to the legislation affecting major hazard facilities and mine operators.

• We are in discussion with mine operators that are preparing more robust safety management systems and critical control verification.

• We are working with new prospects who are transitioning from other software packages that do not meet their needs for effective critical control management.

• We expect that RiskView will play a major role in the development of safety management systems for those mine operators under the new legislation.

• We are also in discussion with several of our major hazard facility clients who are looking to increase their usage of the software.

• We expect that RiskView will play a greater role in control assurance and performance reporting for those MHF operators.

Where our clients are taking us

Here’s some of the new developments you can expect over the next 12 months:

• Risk assessment wizard – a guided step-by-step tool for risk assessments and bowtie analysis

• Bowtie method training – public training & CPD workshops hosted in partnership with our clients

• RiskView training – public training courses for current and incoming clients in various cities

• Publications – journal articles and innovative case studies presented at conferences (e.g. Hazards 2018 in Perth)
