Respected seniors,

My name is Rakesh Pathak. I have been providing safety training for the past two years, and now I am looking to establish an academic institution focused on safety and security training. I kindly request your suggestions and advice for the improvement of this endeavor.

Form the contribution of all the information gathered on 'A series of explosions at a chemical factory in the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) premises at Nandesari,' my contribution would be as follows:-

It should be the responsibility of the Management/Safety officer's procedure violation. Did the Safety Health Officer or the Management have any written 'hazardous operation procedure' for this chemical pressure vessel plant? Assuming there is one procedure, what is the safe permit-able pressure limit for this pressure vessel and how was the pressure being monitored/how often. Was the procedure followed in practice on that day?

In the written procedure, were the safe thickness of the walls of the pressure vessel checked? And how often? Whether the procedure was followed in practice. The safe period of life of any pressure vessel, as assessed and certified by the Manufacturer/Certified agency (normally by a chemical engineer expert), is within the valid period or not. Whether any operating/checking procedures were drafted and were not followed/any violation by any workmen at the time of the accident was noticed/witnessed by anybody at the time of the accident.

All the procedures should have been accepted and in practice. Sometimes only a log entry will be there without proper checking. The Safety Officer/Line Managers/plant Managers have the responsibility/should have observed whether the procedure was being followed as per the procedure. This follow-up is also as important as production. If there is any procedure violation, including the non-availability of such a procedure, Management as a team has to sit and decide and draft a future plan to avoid recurrence.
