Plant safety training for operators, technicians, engineers, supervisors, and managers - 1 day in the classroom or 8 hours online, covering the hazards, procedures, and control-based safety strategies that keep a plant running safely, finishing with a completion certificate.
The PLT100 plant safety course teaches operators, technicians, engineers, supervisors, and managers the safety practices that matter most during plant operation, startup, commissioning, and maintenance. Known formally as PiControl's Industrial Process and Plant Safety course, PLT100 runs as 1 day of classroom training or 8 hours online, using training slides and hand-outs rather than dedicated lab software. Despite advances in modern plant safety, injuries, illnesses, and fatalities on the job still happen, and PLT100 is built to close that gap.
A unique aspect of PLT100 is that it also covers how process control schemes and strategies can be used to increase operational safety - including how DCS/PLC control schemes, advisories, and online closed-loop strategies are designed with safety in mind, and how alarm strategies and real-time monitoring support safer operation. Alongside that control-focused thread, the course builds broader safety awareness so attendees are more aware of hazards, more cognizant of imminent dangers, and better equipped to reduce both on-the-job and off-the-job safety incidents.
PLT100 moves from the human causes of plant accidents to hazard-specific and hands-on work-practice safety, then closes with how safety is designed directly into the plant's process control strategies. After completing the course, attendees are familiar with the safety concepts relevant to chemical plants, more aware of hazards, more cognizant of imminent dangers, and better equipped to operate and work safely - contributing to improved company safety records.
The course covers the following topics.
Once these topics are complete, attendees recognize plant hazards, follow safe work procedures, and understand how DCS/PLC control schemes, advisories, and alarm strategies contribute to operational safety.
PLT100 is built for the people who keep a plant safe day to day: operators, technicians, engineers, supervisors, and managers. There are no prerequisites, because PLT100 is designed for individuals at any experience level, from operators to managers, and the course is a must for anyone with a role in plant safety.
Build the day-to-day hazard awareness that lock-out/tag-out, chemical handling, PPE, and safe work practices depend on, so routine and non-routine plant tasks get done safely.
Learn how to embed safety considerations directly into logic design, alarm strategies, and real-time monitoring using DCS/PLC architectures, alongside general plant hazard awareness.
Use PLT100's emphasis on documentation, safe operating procedures, and system-based safety planning to support OSHA, EPA, and insurer requirements, and to lead toolbox talks and safety briefings.
PLT100 also suits full teams from a single plant, including multi-shift operations and contractor onboarding. PiControl offers private sessions tailored to industry-specific risks - such as chemical manufacturing, oil & gas, or utilities - and to your plant's own equipment or processes. Onsite corporate training is available on request so a team trains together on its own hazards and shift patterns.
PLT100 attendees receive a PiControl Solutions completion certificate that can be added to a professional profile and presented during internal audits or performance reviews. PLT100 emphasizes documentation, safe operating procedures, and system-based safety planning - all of which support compliance with OSHA, EPA, and insurer requirements, and help attendees prepare for regulatory audits or insurance inspections.
Attendees also receive training slides and hand-outs covering all essential safety topics, giving participants reference material to take away and use to lead safety meetings, refreshers, and departmental toolbox talks within their own organization. With prior approval, attendees may bring anonymized case examples from their own plant for discussion, and the instructor can guide the class through hazard identification and mitigation strategies based on real scenarios.
