Goals & Strategies

Realized in CSE main research areas and projects.

It’s a long way to achieve great goals!

Make our world safer!
Create trust through safety!
Live safety, not just teach it!

Technical plants and processes must become even safer!

No casualties / no major events
No adverse effects on humans and the environment
No release of substances (zero emission)
No events
No deviations from normal operation

“None” means: not a single one – at any time! That is the goal. A balance must be struck between economic interests and the protection of people and the environment. Worldwide resources must be conserved.

We need to build confidence in safe plants:

Trust is based on respectful interaction
Trust means responsibility for the other
Trust must be reaffirmed every day!

It is an arduous journey to get there:

Public trust in safety instead of acceptance of risks
Public mindfulness instead of belief in zero risk
Continuous dialogue on safety instead of silence
Daily „Licence to operate“

We create free space in the mind – for the Safety Mind Set! That means safety 24/7 …

Everyone must think and act in terms of safety, every day, everywhere …

Safety does not end at the factory gate
Always assess the risk first – then act adequately
Safety thinking and acting can be learned

“Safety Mind Set” should be present in all people. Safety must be lived.

Harmony in safety – the world needs a niveau!

We are working towards a uniformly high and accepted safety level for process and plant safety worldwide.

ow this level can be achieved depends on many factors, including culture, training, manufacturing qualities and tolerances, etc.

Harmonization is important for globally active companies.

Our motivation: standing still is going backwards – what can we do today to become safer?

CSE Strategy:

Applied research for plant safety
Promoting young talent through research and teaching
Innovations with safety
Sustainable competence retention
CSE – Leadership in process and plant safety
