Key Points

• Four instruments, each with a distinct focus:
  • i. Environmental Audit - b. EMS verification. Checking compliance and management-system performance.
  • ii. Safety Audit - c. Hazard identification. Finding unsafe conditions and acts.
  • iii. OSEP - d. Internal incident control. Managing an emergency within the plant boundary.
  • iv. Off-site Plan - a. Multi-agency coordination. Managing effects beyond the boundary.

Additional Information

• The pairing that decides the question is the on-site/off-site split: *internal* control against *external* coordination. Securing that eliminates the alternatives at once.
• The two audits divide the same way as their subject matter: the environmental audit looks at systems and compliance, the safety audit at hazards and physical conditions.
• All four are complementary rather than alternative. A well-run hazardous installation operates all of them: audits to find and fix weaknesses, and emergency plans for the risk that remains after they have been fixed.
• Authorship follows the same internal/external logic — the occupier writes the on-site plan, the District Collector the off-site plan.
