*Navedena porazdelitev ur velja, če je vpisanih vsaj 15 študentov. Drugače se obseg izvedbe kontaktnih ur sorazmerno zmanjša in prenese v samostojno delo. / This distribution of hours is valid if at least 15 students are enrolled. Otherwise the contact hours are linearly reduced and transfered to individual work.

Vsebina:
Content (Syllabus outline):

- Značilnosti preteklih večjih nesreč (zgodovinski pregled, trendi, odziv družbe).
- Prepoznavanje in ocenjevanje tveganj za vidik procesne varnosti (metode za ugotavljanje virov nevarnosti, izdelava scenarijev nesreč, metode in orodja za ocenjevanje teže posledic in njihove verjetnosti, potencial za verižne nesreče).
- Uporaba rezultatov ocene tveganja (varnostne analize) za zniževanje tveganj, presoja sprejemljivosti in vplivov na okolje, načrtovanje zaščite in reševanja, obveščanje javnosti, prostorsko načrtovanje itd.
- Sistemi obvladovanja procesne varnosti (management).
- Ocenjevanje kvalitete vodenja organizacij/obratov, ocenjevanje varnostne kulture, ocenjevanje in upravljanje človeške zanesljivosti.
- Analize vzrokov izrednih dogodkov z nevarnimi snovmi.

- Characteristics of the past major accidents (historical overview, trends, societal response).
- Identification and assessment of process safety risks (methods for hazards identification, development of major accident scenarios, methods and tools for assessment of consequences and their likelihoods, domino effects potential).
- Use of the risk assessment results (safety analysis) for risk reduction, licensing procedures (tolerability assessment) related to the environmental impact assessment, emergency response planning, informing the public, spatial planning, etc.
- Process safety management systems.
- Assessment of management quality of the organizations/establishments, evaluation of the safety climate (culture), assessment and management of human reliability.
- Root cause analysis of the process safety incidents and accidents.
