The Tank Storage Association has reaffirmed its commitment to good major hazard leadership with the launch of a refreshed Safety Leadership Charter.
The Safety Leadership Charter outlines seven pledges focused on managing major hazard risks through an engaged, positive, informed, and cooperative safety culture. These pledges uphold the original Principles of Process Safety Leadership, which emphasise senior leadership engagement and competence in safety management, active workforce involvement in managing safety, and the sharing of good practice and learning of lessons from across industry sectors.
Peter Davidson, chief executive of the Tank Storage Association, says: ’20 years on from the Buncefield incident, our refreshed Safety Leadership Charter reaffirms our commitment to driving forward a positive and collaborative safety culture, as established following the Process Safety Leadership Group’s final report, both within our member organisations and the wider major hazards community. It is a testament to our collective resolve to strive for the highest standards and continue leading from the front in the management of major hazard risks.’
