  2. ATEX ASSESSMENT ATEX is an acronym of the French Atmospheriques Explosive and is the name commonly given to the two European Directives for controlling explosive atmospheres: • Directive 99/92/EC also known as ‘ATEX 153’ or the ‘ATEX Workplace Directive’ on minimum requirements for improving the health and safety protection of workers potentially at risk from explosive atmospheres. It concentrates on the end users’ responsibilities. Directive 2014/34/EU replaces 94/9/EC also known as ‘ATEX 114’ or the ‘ATEX Equipment Directive’ on the approximation of the laws of Members States concerning equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. It focuses on the duties of the manufacturers. • +44 (0)1962 840570 https://www.sigma-hse.com

  3. DSEAR ASSESSMENT The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (DSEAR) 2002 is a UK law which came into force on the 9th December 2002 and is a combination of two European Directives, 1999/92/EC, now known as ATEX 153 directive and 98/24/EC, known as CAD, the Chemical Agents Directive. DSEAR Assessment set minimum requirements for the protection of workers from fire and explosion risks related to dangerous substances and potentially explosive atmospheres. According to DSEAR, all sites handling flammable materials capable of forming a potentially explosive atmosphere should have adequate protection against risks from fire, explosion and similar events arising from dangerous substances used or present in the workplace. From June 2015 DSEAR also covers the risk caused by gases under pressure and substances that are corrosive to metals. +44 (0)1962 840570 https://www.sigma-hse.com

  4. HAZOP STUDY The HAZOP technique was originally developed almost 40 years ago and is now the most familiar method to identify and manage hazards on process plants worldwide. Even though hazard identification is the key focus, operability problems should be identified to understand if they have the possibility to result in process hazards. +44 (0)1962 840570 https://www.sigma-hse.com
