High Integrity Systems and Safety Management in Hazardous Industries, Second Edition serves as an overview of best practices as applied to high integrity systems, including their design, maintenance, regulation, and detailed guidance surrounding safety management processes. Across three parts, this book introduces current, key themes for all engineering managers of high-hazard plants, including aging plants, cybersecurity, crisis management, corporate social responsibility, and the significance of local culture to operational safety. This book uses real-world examples and a multidisciplinary approach to safety case management to bridge the disciplinary gap and help readers understand the latest advice and technology underpinning high integrity systems and safety management. It will be an invaluable guide for industry professionals, researchers, and students at graduate level or above working or researching in hazardous industries.
J.R. (Jim) Thomson is an independent consultant, specializing in high integrity systems and safety management. He has worked in plant operations management, engineering management, and safety management, and has held executive director posts in two international safety consultancies. He has chaired two international conferences on high-integrity safety systems and was awarded the Nuclear Institute's Pinkerton Prize in 2013.
