RECOGNITION OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION POTENTIALS
Safety does not just "happen." Safe work places are the result of good design, construction, procedures and worker training. Using actual case studies from the North Slope Oil Production facilities together with cases gathered from around the world, GSI presented an 8 hour training program to help workers recognize situations which are likely to lead to a fire or explosion.This course can be tailored to suit the needs of other industrial facilities since the "human factors" common to the majority of industrial fires and explosions are the same -- regardless of the industry.Nearly all accidents are the result of several things "going wrong" - a "chain" of events. If people are taught to recognize potentially dangerous situations, often they can easily "break a link in the chain" and prevent the impending accident. But without training, it is a matter of chance as to whether people will recognize potentially dangerous situations.
