Introducing SAMTRAC Masterclass: Petrochemical
Health and safety skills training in the petrochemical industry is a major part of many companies’ operating frameworks. Training is used to grow skill sets that protect people working in a petrochemical plant from harm, to improve safety at businesses where large volumes of petrochemicals are used regularly, and to minimise any potential health hazards that may arise due to chemical exposure.
Several devastating incidents at petrochemical plants such as explosions, fires, environmental pollution, asphyxiation, acid burns, skin disorders, and chronic and acute conditions of several diseases have been known to occur due to leakage of poisonous chemicals. This makes it crucial for businesses to hire safety professionals that have advanced HSE skills that are tailored specifically for petrochemical environments. With this in mind and to help career-seekers get ahead professionally, SafetyCloud has worked closely with industry leading Subject Matter Experts to develop the new SAMTRAC Masterclass: Petrochemical using a unique open innovation model.
