For project managers and engineers involved withhazardous processes or high energy plants, thistwo day workshop focuses on the management,planning and execution of automatic safetysystems in accordance with IEC 61511, the widelyaccepted international standard for functionalsafety in the process industries. IEC 61511 hasbeen recognised by safety authorities in Europe,the USA and in Australia as representing the bestpractices available for the design and managementof automatic safety systems. It combines well-established safety design principles with thespecial techniques required when usingprogrammable devices such as transmitters andPLCs in safety related applications. Regulatingauthorities do not consider safety shutdownsystems to be acceptable unless they have suitablelife cycle management systems supported bycompetent staff.

This workshop provides the essential groundingin the safety management principles andtechnical requirements needed to achieveconformity and competency in safety systems. Itis designed to ensure that both managers andengineering staff understand the key issues andare trained in the fundamentals of safety systempractices. This workshop is structured into twomajor parts to ensure that both managers andengineering staff are trained in the fundamentalsof safety system practices. The first section isdesigned to introduce managers as well asspecialist engineers to the tasks involved inmanaging and implementing safety controlsystems. The second section is allocated fortraining of engineers and technicians in thespecification and delivery of safety controlsystems.
