Stepping into COMAH: Key Considerations for a Smooth Transition

With regulatory changes and increased inventories, more organisations are finding themselves newly classified under the Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH) Regulations. For many, this transition raises key questions: where do you start with process safety, competence management, and compliance planning?

This webinar will explore what companies should be thinking about as they prepare to move into COMAH – from understanding the regulatory framework to identifying gaps in systems, training, and culture.

• Understand the key regulatory requirements for lower-tier COMAH sites
