Abstract Employers who are subject to OSH A's Process Safety Management (PSM) standard (29 CFR 1910.119) are required to evaluate their programs for compliance at least once every three years, and quickly correct deficiencies. That's what should have happened at Veolia ES Technical Solutions, a chemical processing company in West Carollton, Ohio.
