Power and Beauty Entwined: Accelerating Chemistry Research with Modern Tools

This webinar will help you improve your root cause analysis. When you attend this presentation, you’ll learn: How a good root cause investigation can build employee support and “buy in” for safety initiatives and improve your EHS culture Key “why” questions that are fundamental to both approaches for determining root cause, whether you're investigating serious incidents, near hits/close calls, or hazards and risks identified through audits or inspections. How to use the results and findings of your investigation processes to the maximum benefit especially for establishing and completing corrective actions (CA) to avoid incidents and accidents in the future.

Jointly organised by STEM Alliance and Scientix, the chat was held online on Thursday, 28 March 2019 from 10:00 to 11:30, Brussels time. The chat took place in English. During this session, pupils had the opportunity to ask questions on careers in the petrochemical industry to the experts. The STEM Alliance chat sessions address classes (pupils from secondary schools) that are led by one or more teachers and aim at promoting awareness of all aspects of STEM careers. Since these chats bring together key STEM professionals and classes from different European countries, they may enhance a lesson focusing on a significant subject. During one and a half hour, pupils, led by one or more teachers, had the opportunity to ask topic-related questions to the experts:

Hydrogen systems pose their own unique hazards which increase the costly risk of unplanned releases, fires and explosions.
