The objectives of this initiative on process and plant safety are: - To create a European Research area. - To combine the knowledge available in the different networks and countries. - To be the electronic references point and the web portal. - To document and up-date the competence and state of the knowledge. - To offer safety guidelines and training activities especially for SMEs.
