Live Online Data and Analytics for Chemical Handling, Laboratory & Process Safety Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 800
Spills, exposures, near misses and failed inspections leave a trail of records, but most sites only count them rather than learn from them. Safety professionals who can analyse that data spot patterns before they become injuries, fires or releases. Five days show how to gather, clean and interpret information from chemical stores, laboratories and process plants and turn it into decisions about controls, training and maintenance.
You work with incident and near-miss registers, safety data sheets, inspection findings, occupational exposure results, gas detector and process alarm logs, and permit-to-work records. Techniques include Excel and Power BI dashboards, trend and Pareto analysis, control charts, leading and lagging indicators, bow-tie and barrier data and basic risk ranking. Sessions draw on process safety concepts such as loss of containment and barrier health. HSE officers, laboratory managers, chemical handlers' supervisors, process engineers and compliance auditors in manufacturing, mining, water treatment, universities and hospitals will gain practical methods. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house, with a CPD-accredited certificate. Afterwards you can build a monthly safety performance dashboard and defend improvement priorities with evidence.

About this course
Chemical and laboratory environments generate a steady stream of data, from incident reports and inspection checklists to monitoring results and alarm histories. Used well, it reveals where controls are weakening long before a serious event. Used badly, it ends up in folders and annual reports that explain last year's accidents but do not prevent next year's.
This programme teaches participants to treat safety information as an operational asset. It starts by defining what to measure and how to record events consistently, then builds skills in data cleaning, descriptive analysis and visual reporting. Delegates explore leading indicators such as overdue inspections, permit quality and alarm response times alongside lagging indicators such as injury and release rates. They also learn to apply trend analysis, statistical process control and simple risk scoring to chemical handling, storage, laboratory work and process operations, and to communicate findings in language that managers and regulators respect.
Teaching is laboratory style. Participants analyse anonymised datasets, build dashboards, and finish with a data-driven improvement plan for a chemical or laboratory facility of their choice.
Training Objectives
On completion, participants will be able to:
- Define useful safety measures for chemical handling, laboratory and process operations.
- Standardise and clean incident, inspection and exposure records for analysis.
- Apply Pareto, trend and control chart methods to safety data.
- Distinguish leading from lagging indicators and select suitable targets.
- Interpret occupational exposure and environmental monitoring results against limits.
- Analyse alarm, permit and maintenance data to assess barrier health.
- Build dashboards for management and regulator reporting.
- Prioritise corrective actions using risk-ranked evidence.
What you'll learn
Key Takeaways
Delegates complete the programme with:
- A standard incident and near-miss data template.
- A leading and lagging indicator set matched to their site.
