Hydrogen safety documentation should be made available to all personnel and should cover:

• roles and responsibilities
• the availability of hydrogen safety training courses
• hydrogen safety information (a library of applicable codes and standards, regulations, industry brochures, etc.)
• results of the most recent hydrogen safety inspections in your facility
• standard operating procedures for the hydrogen systems in your facility
• reports on any hydrogen incidents or near-misses in your facility.
• information pertaining to the technology of the process, including:
  • a block flow diagram or simplified process flow diagram;
  • process chemistry;
  • maximum intended inventory;
  • safe upper and lower limits for such items as temperatures, pressures, flows or compositions; and,
  • an evaluation of the consequences of deviations, including those affecting the safety and health of employees.
• information pertaining to the equipment in the process including:
  • materials of construction;
  • piping and instrument diagrams (P&ID's);
  • electrical classification;
  • relief system design and design basis;
  • ventilation system design;
  • design codes and standards employed;
  • material and energy balances; and
  • safety systems (e.g. interlocks, detection or suppression systems).

Work documentation (e.g., work orders, baseline drawings) should always reflect the current hydrogen system configuration.
