Functional Safety

Functional Safety

Functional safety refers to the part of overall safety that depends on a system or equipment operating correctly in response to its inputs. Our Functional Safety training course is an introductory workshop designed to familiarize your staff with essential plant and machine safety standards, regulations, and concepts. This training will assist them in maintaining and supporting safety systems effectively. Additionally, it serves as a valuable preparatory step for those aiming to undertake certified safety training programs.

about this course format

Our “Online” training course offers you the flexibility to complete the program at your own pace, making it convenient for your schedule. You can choose to take the course entirely online or with real-time interaction with an instructor.

This course leans more towards theoretical concepts compared to face-to-face training, primarily due to its online delivery format. However, a hybrid approach with occasional classroom visits may be available.s

Who the course is for

Maintenance, engineering, management and process staff working within functional safety environments and are looking for classroom based training.

What you'll learn

Learning outcomes can be customised to site requirements and attendees proficiency, example outcomes are listed below:

  • Recognising legal and company requirements.
  • Appreciating the safety strategy adopted in your business.
  • Understanding terms and definitions used in functional safety.
  • Comprehending the differing functional safety standards and their application at work.
  • Understanding and applying risk assessment process to site based situations (ISO 12100 & ISO1412).
  • Using IEC 62061, ISO 13849 & AS 4024 to derive safety related control solutions.
  • Understanding and calculating required Categories (CAT), Performance Levels (PL) and Safety Integrity Levels (SIL).
  • Applying IEC 60204 electrical safety principles with functional safety to ensure electrical integrity.
  • Using software tools/templates to facilitate hazard identification, risk assessment and evaluation on a real machine.

about this course format

Our “Face to Face” training courses offer engaging, instructor-led sessions in a traditional classroom environment. Participants enjoy the benefits of being part of a small workgroup, which encourages interactive learning and provides personalised attention to technical topics that can be based on your ‘site specific’ assets and requirements.

This method of training can provide a faster route to achieving specific competences in a particular subject area, particularly if it integrates your employer site policies and procedures.
