Despite the progressive developments in industrial control and detections systems, researches of standards, risk management techniques, usage of accident databases, diffusion of new innovations such as virtual reality applications, the safety level of the companies is still insufficient and major accidents are still happening. To improve the safety level of the companies the experiences, know ledges such as the application of technology, compliance with the design standards, the safety management system should be reviewed and false facts should be revealed. Through these conditions development of a new system is necessary to improve safety level of companies totally. In this study, the main factors such as misunderstandings of the standards, innovation and software capabilities, compliance with international legal regulations, management systems which are effecting of safety level is discussed with the inspection results of last accidents, recent applications and know ledges. Consequently, special proposals are prepared for the Petrochemical Industries in the concept of ‘system safety’.
