Safety Instrumented Functions (SIFs) reduce the likelihood of a hazardous event. This two day course starting 12 November will develop your understanding of SIFs and how they are managed. A previous delegate said, "I found the course very helpful in getting an understanding of how SIFs are determined and calculated and the ongoing requirements.
