Development and application of a methodology for hazard analysis and risk assessment for industrial units dealing with dangerous substances

Abstract

The “SEVESO II” Directive (96/82/EC) is aimed at the prevention of the major accident hazards involving dangerous substances and the limitation of their consequences for man and the environment, with a view to ensuring high levels of protection throughout the Community in a consistent and effective manner. A requirement for a “Safety Report” is included in the Directive as one of the principal measures to achieve this aim.
