Human Fatigue Risk Management: Improving Safety in the Chemical Processing Industry teaches users everything they need to know to mitigate the risk of fatigued workers in a plant or refinery. As human fatigue has been directly linked to several major disasters, the book explores the API RP 755 guidelines that were released to reduce these types of incidents. This book will help users follow API RP 755 and/or implement a fatigue risk management system in their organization. Susan Murray, a recognized expert in the field of sleep deprivation and its relation to high hazard industries, has written this book to be useful for HSE managers, plant and project managers, occupational safety professionals, and engineers and managers in the chemical processing industry. As scheduling of shifts is an important factor in reducing fatigue and accident rates, users will learn the benefits of more frequent staff rotation and how to implement an ideal scheduling plan. The book goes beyond API RP 755, offering more detailed understanding of why certain measures for managing fatigue are beneficial to a company, including examples of how theory can be put into practice. It is a simple, digestible book for managers who are interested in addressing human factor issues at their workplace in order to raise safety standards. Covers sleep, sleep disorders, and the consequences of fatigue as related to high-hazard industries Helps improve safety standards at the plant level Provides information on how to comply with API RP 755 and related OSHA 29CFR1910 articles Relates fatigue and human performance to accidents, helping readers make a case for implementing a human fatigue risk management policy, which, in turn, prevents loss of property and life

L'article commence par une série de quatre comparaisons pouvant éclairer la recherche de solutions préventives contre l'homicide familial : 1. comparaisons internationales sur le contrôle des armes à feu ; 2. comparaisons entre les homicides conjugaux et les autres violences familiales non létales ; 3. comparaisons selon les types de violence familiale ; 4. comparaisons entre intervention et non intervention policière. La deuxième partie présente les solutions préventives les plus prometteuses 1. Encourager les victimes et les tiers à appeler la police. 2. Distinguer les degrés de violence et agir en conséquence. 3. Quand le danger est faible, viser l'apaisement, le blâme et la dissuasion. 4. Quand le danger est élevé, viser la neutralisation de l'agresseur et la protection de la victime. 5. Tenir compte du facteur temps. 6. Confisquer les armes à feu en possession des auteurs de violence familiale. The article starts by four comparisons useful when one looks at the prevention of family homicide : 1. international comparisons on gun control ; 2. comparisons between partner homicide and other non-lethal violence ; 3. comparisons between types of family violence ; 4. comparison between police intervention and non-intervention. In the second part, promising preventive solutions are presented : 1. Encouraging victims and third parties to call the police. 2. Distinguishing degrees of violence. 3. If the degree of danger is low, aiming at blaming and deterring. 4. If the degree of danger is high, aiming at incapacitation and protection of victim. 5. Taking time into account. 6. Taking away guns from the hands of violent individuals.
