(b) military installations;
(c) transport outside the site of an installation other than by pipeline.
4. A Member ratifying this Convention may, after consulting the representative organizations of employers and workers concerned and other interested parties who may be affected, exclude from the application of the Convention installations or branches of economic activity for which equivalent protection is provided.
Article 2
Where special problems of a substantial nature arise so that it is not immediately possible to implement all the preventive and protective measures provided for in this Convention, a Member shall draw up plans, in consultation with the most representative organizations of employers and workers and with other interested parties who may be affected, for the progressive implementation of the said measures within a fixed time-frame.
Article 3
For the purposes of this Convention:
(a) the term “hazardous substance” means a substance or mixture of substances which by virtue of chemical, physical or toxicological properties, either singly or in combination, constitutes a hazard;
(b) the term “threshold quantity” means for a given hazardous substance or category of substances that quantity, prescribed in national laws and regulations by reference to specific conditions, which if exceeded identifies a major hazard installation;
(c) the term “major hazard installation” means one which produces, processes, handles, uses, disposes of or stores, either permanently or temporarily, one or more hazardous substances or categories of substances in quantities which exceed the threshold quantity;
(d) the term “major accident” means a sudden occurrence – such as a major emission, fire or explosion – in the course of an activity within a major hazard installation, involving one or more hazardous substances and leading to a serious danger to workers, the public or the environment, whether immediate or delayed;
(e) the term “safety report” means a written presentation of the technical, management and operational information covering the hazards and risks of a major hazard installation and their control and providing justification for the measures taken for the safety of the installation;
(f) the term “near miss” means any sudden event involving one or more hazardous substances which, but for mitigating effects, actions or systems, could have escalated to a major accident.

2. Ta politika se izvaja s preprečevalnimi in varnostmi ukrepi v obratih z nevarnostjo večjih nesreč in se mora z njo, če je to izvedljivo, pospeševati uporaba najboljših razpoložljivih tehnik.
5. člen
1. Pristojni organ ali organizacija, ki jo pristojni organ za to pooblasti, po posvetu z najreprezentativnejšmi organizacijami delodajalcev in delojemalcev ter drugimi zainteresiranimi stranmi, ki jih to lahko prizadene, na podlagi seznama nevarnih snovi ali skupin teh snovi oziroma obojih skupaj z njihovimi mejnimi količinami v skladu z notranjo zakonodajo ali mednarodnimi standardi vzpostavi sistem za prepoznavanje obratov z nevarnostjo večjih nesreč, kot so določeni v točki c) 3. člena.
2. Sistem iz prvega odstavka tega člena je treba redno pregledovati in posodabljati.
