COMAH Training Course, Major Accident Hazards, Process Safety PowerPoint (Digital Download)

COMAH — Keep Four Walls Standing

Give your site, your shift teams and your managers a clear, practical COMAH training course on major accident hazards and process safety, without wading through the Regulations.

This HartfellCo training course explains the Control of Major Accident Hazards Regulations 2015 (COMAH) in plain English, and it is built around one rule: between every hazard and a major accident, keep four walls standing — Prevent, Detect, Control, Respond. Know your walls at the start of every shift (name it, check it, report it), and keep them up when work, people or plant change (hold it, change it, restore it). The Four Walls and the six steps are our own teaching framework, not HSE terminology or a legal requirement. The course draws on three real cases published by HSE, summarised in our own words: Buncefield, Shell at Bacton, and ExxonMobil at Fife.

Fully editable, so you can add your own branding and deliver it as your own.

WHAT'S COVERED

• Why major accidents matter, with a real case published by HSE
• What COMAH is: lower and upper tier, example thresholds and the competent authority
• What operators must do: the general duty, the major accident prevention policy, safety reports, emergency plans and domino effects
• How major accidents happen, and how barriers and layers of defence fail quietly
• Safety management systems, permits and isolation, human factors and management of change
• Your routine: a two-minute pre-shift barrier check and a quarterly review
