FSES provide various Functional Training services for all of specific parts of IEC 61508 and its sector derivatives.


Consequence Modelling

Discharge and Dispersion is often required to evaluate the consequence of identified hazardous events.


Design Engineering

Functional safety activities are most effective by integration into a well-established and proven quality management system.


Building Risk Assessment

Building Risk Assessment (BRA) is a tool used to assess the risks to people in occupied buildings in the facility.


Dropped Objects Analysis

Dropped Objects Analysis


Escape, Evacuation and Rescue Analysis

Escape, Evacuation and Rescue Analysis ensures that the design of a facility is such that the risk to personnel is kept to within the ALARP region.


Functional Safety Assessment

Independent Management of Functional Safety Assessments, Audits & Support.


Functional Safety Lifecycle and Management

Functional Safety Lifecycle and Management is a key requirement demonstrating how Functional Safety is to be implemented and achieved.


Human Factors

Human factor assessment is a key area in identifying potential hazards which may be instigated by human errors.
