Which item is NOT typically included in a Process Safety Management program?

• A. Management commitment
• B. Employee involvement
• C. Marketing strategy
• D. Process hazard analysis

Answer: (C)

This question tests which items belong in a Process Safety Management program. A PSM program is built to prevent releases and protect people by focusing on leadership, worker involvement, and systematic hazard analysis. Management commitment provides the leadership, resources, and safety culture needed for safe operation. Employee involvement ensures operators and other workers participate in hazard identification, procedure development, and safety improvements. A process hazard analysis uses structured techniques to identify hazards, assess risk, and justify safeguards before and during operations. Marketing strategy, by contrast, is about promoting products and market presence, not about preventing process safety incidents, so it is not typically included in a PSM program.
