2.0 CIMAH REGULATIONS
Many major accidents that have occurred around the world had caused massive fire,
death, explosion, loss of property and the hazardous and toxic release to the
environment. In Malaysia, the major industrial accidents that have occurred include
Bright Sparklers and Tiram Kimia, etc.
In response to growing internal public demand and international pressure within the
industry, the Malaysian Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH) has
promulgated the Control of Industrial Major Accident Hazards (CIMAH) Regulations
1996 under Regulation Safety and Health Act, Act 514 which was gazetted on February
1, 1996. Under the Regulations, each Major Hazard Installation (MHI) is required to
submit a Safety Report and an Emergency Response Plan (ERP) to DOSH. Industries
that handle hazardous substances in excess of stated threshold quantities are listed as
MHI, as described in Schedules 1 and 2 of the Regulations.
