In 2023, we worked in partnership with Empirisys to create and deploy the largest-ever Process Safety Leadership Survey of its kind. We gathered the opinions of senior leaders and executives across the industry to understand where they thought they were in regard to the Principles of Process Safety and asked industry leaders to play their part by committing to undertake the survey. This enabled them to identify where improvements in process safety leadership could be made across their organisations. We received valuable input from 450 leaders representing 73 organisations.
