AbstractThis paper describes the development of a management model to control barriers devised to prevent major hazard scenarios. Additionally,an audit technique is explained that assesses the quality of such a management system. The final purpose of the audit technique is to quantifythose aspects of the management system that have a direct impact on the reliability and effectiveness of the barriers and, hence, the probabilityof the scenarios involved.First, an outline of the management model is given and its elements are explained. Then, the development of the audit technique is described.Because the audit technique uses actual major hazard scenarios and barriers within these as its focus, the technique achieves a concretenessand clarity that many other techniques often lack. However, this strength is also its limitation, since the full safety management system is notcovered with the technique. Finally, some preliminary experiences obtained from several test sites are compiled and discussed.© 2005 Elsevier B.V.
