IChemE director of policy, Andrew Furlong says the event will be pertinent as the recovery from the global economic downturn continues: “Making the case for sustained investment in process safety can be difficult in the current economic climate. Nevertheless, history reminds us that the financial and human costs of a major incident will far outweigh any savings that might be made when finances are tight.”
Abstracts are sought across a wide range of themes including New developments and the latest research findings (including ‘work in progress’) in process safety and environmental protection; Best practice in process safety leadership and safety and environmental management systems; And inherently safer design. A full list of topic headings can be found here. The abstract deadline is 23 June 2010. 

The Hazards symposium remains an important and popular forum to debate latest developments in process safety and environmental protection. First staged in 1960, the meeting typically attracts an international line-up of speakers and delegates.
