Don't be alarmed by 'nuisance' alarms in the process industry

According to the Abnormal Situation Management (ASM) Consortium, ineffective management of nuisance alarms (alarms that sound unnecessarily) can lead to incidents that cost the process industry billions of dollars and pose an increased risk of fatigue and stress for operators who must constantly make instant decisions on how to respond when an alarm sounds.
