Abstract

Industrial facilities are becoming bigger and more up to date, And a kind of the hazardous material used in the industrial filed is diversified. Therefore, serious accidents such as leakage of toxic materials, fire and explosion, is continuously occurred. There is Process Safety Management (PSM) system of the several preventive systems, but it is supposed to be a limitation to ensure safety or huge PSM industrial sites where have potential to catastrophically invisible and unexpected risks because it is still being managed by instruction and inspection of authority having jurisdiction other than self-regulating management differing from the primarily aim of PSM system. To verify safety management system of work-place, supplementation of existing system is urgently required. In this study, it suggests that PSM self-audit be emphasized significantly analyzing problems of the current systems for enhancing self-audit be emphasized significantly analyzing problems of the current systems for enhancing self-control safety through efficient self-audit management and improving the existing system and improving the existing as verifying the system there of, as well as studying methods which can support institutionally.

산업시설의 대형, 첨단화에 따라 각 산업현장에서 다양한 종류의 유해 위험물질이 대량으로 사용되고 있다. 이에 따라 독성누출, 화재, 폭발 등의 중대산업사고가 지속적으로 발생되고 있으며 그 위험은 점점 높아지고 있는 실정이다. 여러 예방 시스템 중 Process Safety Management (PSM, 공정안전관리)제도가 있지만 아직까지도 제도의 취지와는 다르게 자율적인 운영보다는 해당 관청의 지도 점검에 맞추어 PSM 제도가 운영되고 있어 보이지 않는 중대위험이 잠재한 대규모 PSM 사업장의 안전성 확보에는 한계가 있다고 할 수 있다. 사업장의 안전시스템을 검증하기 위해서는 기존 시스템의 보완이 절실히 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 PSM 자체감사의 중요성을 강조하고, 현재 제도의 문제점을 분석하여, 이에 대한 시스템 검증으로 제도 개선의 제안과 효율적인 자체감사 운영을 통해 자율 안전성을 강화하도록 하였으며, 또한 제도적으로도 이를 뒷받침할 수 있는 방법을 연구하여 제안하였다.
