Management Integrity level (MIL) and Process Safety

There is a lot of talk about safety integrity level and the reliability of control and shutdown systems. While a reliable instrumented system is good for process safety, it is the integrity of management, what I call Management Integrity Level that is more important! By this what I mean is whether management is really interested in process safety by allocating resources, time and competencies. Even if we develop a MIL (Management Integrity Level) rating for management, the score has to be measured and monitored on a continuous basis!
Do not get carried away by SIL ratings and multi coloured QRA's and risk matrices. Look into your organisation and determine whether Management Integrity Levels are adequate! The answer lies within!
