The webinar addresses the problems relating to the impact of improper Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) maintenance practices and what this means, as well as looking at the competency requirements. Most companies believe they follow good SIS maintenance practices but do they really? Are they really measuring and tracking this? How do they measure and track?
