Review and Revalidation

At least every five years after the completion of the initial process hazard analysis, the process hazard analysis must be updated and revalidated by a team meeting the standard's requirements to ensure that the hazard analysis is consistent with the current process.

Employers must keep on file and make available to OSHA, upon request, process hazard analyses and updates or revalidation for each process covered by the PSM standard, as well as the documented resolution of recommendations, for the life of the process.
