In this episode, John and Molly discuss how to set yourself up for successful buy-in and a positive PSM culture with boots on the ground personnel and talk about how experienced operators can be utilized to build, review, and optimize Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). John and Molly also touch on how operators can assist with field labeling and P&ID updates, delivering relevant and engaging refresher training, and how experienced operators can be involved in the Management of Change (MOC) process, Process Hazard Analyses (PHAs), and in Incident Investigations.
