Simplified Procedures and Workers' Involvement: Two Keystones for Improving Safety at Small Seveso Plants
Abstract
When small enterprises have to face major hazards, tools and procedures developed for major companies, including safety management systems and related procedures could be inadequate. A simplified set of procedures has been developed for the Italian Galvanic Industry, which features many small establishments with major accident hazards. To achieve the workers’ involvement in safety management a smart application has been developed, supported by a digital representation of the safety system.
