To apply “Seveso II Directive” on major accidents hazards on certain industrial activities, e-Seveso applies equally to those industries that handling or not dangerous substances, falling or not within any directive, want to add or improve preventive measures for their industrial security. To be specially suitable for SMEs with scarce means (human, economic) for accessing any costly/private security system. Most of these SME industries are allocated inside Industrial Parks or industrial districts, where special requirements frequently arise from the often (if not in all cases) close proximity of the establishments and their interconnectedness. The danger of the domino effect prevails in this situation.
