PSM schemes are organized in 'elements'. Different schemes are based on different lists of elements. This is the CCPS scheme for risk-based process safety, which can be reconciled with most other established PSM schemes: [21] Commit to process safety Process safety culture; Compliance with standards; Process safety competency; Workforce involvement
