Dear Beacon Readers, This present pandemic is affecting our private and professional lives. We ask you to take care of yourselves and follow the guidelines issued by your national health authorities. Now more people could be absent from their jobs, being quarantined or ill. Colleagues filling in may not have the same routine or expertise, so make doubly sure that everyone knows what to do and what is going on in the plant, and that procedures are well communicated and followed. And even if equipment is shut down, it may still need operators to monitor it, in particular if it contains process material. Stay safe and healthy! Sincerely, Beacon Team John Herber, Beacon Committee Chair R=C3=BCdiger Lenz, Beacon Committee Vice-Chair April Beacon The links at the bottom of this note provide access to the April 2020 CCPS Process Safety Beacon.
