Abstract Cuban Major Hazard/Safety Case regulations require that Facility Operators produce Operational Safety Cases with the aim of demonstrating that they can manage their risks of major accidents during facility operation to a level that is As Low as Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). The production of a good quality, fit-for-purpose Safety Case is a complex issue and must be cautiously approached by Facility Operators. Lessons from the Victoria Safety Case implementation and the Nimrod Review highlighted the need to ensure that a robust Safety Case process is in place before starting the work. This is of paramount importance in ensuring the process of production of the Operational Safety Cases delivers a final product – the documented Safety Case - that is Succinct, Home-grown, Accessible, Proportionate, Easy-to-understand and Document-lite (SHAPED). This paper provides insights into the manner in which the Safety Case production process is carried out by Facility Operators in accordance with a Safety Case Preparation Plan, which must previously be accepted by the Regulator. The Plan must be written in a way that defines the Safety Case process, emphasizes ownership and leadership of the process by the Facility Operator, maximizes workforce involvement in the production of the Safety Case deliverables and demonstrates and facilitates accessibility and usability of the final product – the documented Safety Case. The paper also provides information on the ‘Pilot’ Safety Case strategy which is a step-by-step, case-by-case process, currently being implemented by the Regulator, to lessen the burden of compliance with Safety Case requirements stated in the Regulations. According to this strategy, the entry of Major Hazard Facilities (MHFs) into the new regime will take place gradually and will not be linked to any specific licensing process.

古巴的安全案例流程：从理论到实践的转变

摘要 古巴重大危害/安全案例法规要求设施运营商制作运营安全案例，目的是证明他们可以将设施运营期间的重大事故风险管理到合理可行的最低水平 (ALARP)。生产优质、适用的安全箱是一个复杂的问题，设施运营商必须谨慎处理。维多利亚州安全案例实施和 Nimrod 审查的经验教训强调需要确保在开始工作之前建立健全的安全案例流程。这对于确保操作安全案例的制作过程提供最终产品 - 记录在案的安全案例 - 即简洁、本土、可访问、相称、易于理解和 Document-lite (SHAPED)。本文提供了对设施运营商根据安全案例准备计划执行安全案例制作过程的方式的见解，该计划必须事先被监管机构接受。该计划必须以定义安全案例流程的方式编写，强调设施运营商对该流程的所有权和领导权，最大限度地提高员工参与安全案例可交付成果的生产，并展示和促进最终产品的可访问性和可用性——记录在案的安全案例。该文件还提供了有关“试点”安全案例策略的信息，这是一个分步、逐案的过程，目前由监管机构实施，减轻遵守法规中规定的安全案例要求的负担。根据这一战略，重大危险设施 (MHF) 进入新制度将逐步进行，不会与任何特定的许可程序相关联。
