Economic Organisations

Consequences The potential elfects of the hazard manifesting itself in the wider system. Recommended Actions The cause(s) of action, either mitigation or avoidance, that could be taken to deal with the situation in question. Whether a given course of action should be taken is tempered by economic, organisational and pohtical factors and as such is not explored in more depth through responsibility modelling. It instead provides a starting point for further deliberations.

A research project initiated by the Norwegian Research Council has studied the effects on safety and health of new economic, organisational and technological conditions for the exploration and production in the Norwegian petroleum industry (Hovden et al, 2000 Hovden Steiro, 2000a, Hovden Steiro, 2000b). The scope of the project also encompassed political implications of the change processes. 

In the framework of the new approach third parties have a particular responsibility. Their task has become more difficult especially in cases where products are manufactured directly to the essential requirements. In that case competent interpretation and judgement needs to be applied in order to evaluate whether the required safety level is achieved or not. Not only safeguard clauses and their economic consequences should be avoided but also possible distortion of the market. An exchange of experience between bodies which are notified for a given directive is therefore normally organised with a view to ensuring its coherent application and to avoid such negative consequences.

Making major investment decisions in the face of the uncertainties that will undoubtedly exist about plant performance, costs, the market, government policy, and the world economic situation, is a difficult and complex task (if not an impossible task) and in a large design organisation the evaluation would be done by a specialist group. 

In a presentation [14] on the occasion of a FPT workshop organised by PTS in 2010 the subject Migration of mineral oils in the paper circuit , model calculations showed how any separation of the RCP cycles to avoid in medium term the input of newspapers as raw material for board manufacturing for food packaging affected the mineral oil contamination of the board. However, the authors concluded that under economic, qualitative and ecological aspects a reasonable solution of the problem can lie only in the reduction of the mineral oil load at the source . 

Furthermore zero waste efforts in Brazil to avoid hazardous consequences caused by additives, due to inappropriate handling of waste, are described. The city of Cantagalo is one of the first in Brazil to establish organised separation and treatment of solid wastes for reuse. The separation with proper allocation for coprocessing of the waste not suitable for recycling or composting is a laudable solution from both an environmental and economic standpoint.
