1. Redesign Permit to Work System
• Seven international standards and guidelines reviewed
• Parent companies, API, HSE, IChemE, Confined Space Regs
• PTWs signed in field
• JSA to be prepared by work teams
• Monitoring program revamped
• Response plans for standbys• Rescue equipment in place before start• Induction improvements
PTW System
1. Poor PTW Management Control

2. PTW Authoriser Changes
• PTW signed in field
• PTW authorization ended at shift change
• Enforced a rest period
• New shift aware
• Changing conditions to be considered:
• Weather• Temperature• Fatigue

3. Training in Permit to Work
• PTW training for different user types
• Validators for all high risk work
• Hot Work in Zone 1• Working at Heights• Confined Space Entry• Building Cavity• Roof• Near Radiation Sources
• Authorisers and Validators went through same training/testing
• Verbal test (had to have working knowledge)• Demonstration of PTW issue

5. Poor Regulatory Oversight
• Trust development• Engagement• Involvement• Reporting – Progress and Issues
• Someone to tell the good things to• Formal Environmental Improvement Plan

5. Stakeholder Group
Stakeholder 2/2
Do:• Be Honest• Listen• Explain technical issues using
simple language and analogies• Trust and be prepared to
expose issues• Get members involved
- Investigations- Exercises
Don’t!• Try to hide bad news• Dismiss concerns because
they are unscientific• Hide behind technicalities
and jargon• Hide behind lawyers• Avoid getting members
involved• Use a PR person

SUMMARY – Permit to Work Incident
• Permit to Work Controls are essential in High Hazard Industry- (Featured in 50% bow ties)
• Lessons from this Incident are:- Shift handover control- Fatigue and Rest- Signs and communication- Maintenance and operations sharing responsibility- Training and testing
• What I don’t see others doing…- Field sign on- Clear responsibility at worksite- Escape and emergency plans- Emergency preparedness
