3180 Guidance on reducing human failure in petroleum product distribution loading and unloading operations

Overview:

This publication aims to provide practical guidance on reducing the prevalence of human failure that may occur during petroleum road tanker loading and unloading operations. It is based on an earlier EI study that included an analysis of incidents, direct observation of specific loading and unloading tasks, and in-depth discussions with those active in petroleum product distribution in numerous workshops.

The guidance is supported by a training package and a guide to conducting workshops similar to those used to generate data for this study. These are included as a free CD Rom with the hard copy orders of the publication, or included in the download of the pdf publication.
