Description

This volume constitutes a comprehensive reference source, using techniques and methods from various disciplines applicable to occupational safety and health. It satisfies the need for a standard reference work in this rapidly growing field. The book is divided into nine parts related to all aspects of the field: ergonomics, insurance, occupational safety and health management and information, occupational safety and health training programs, analytical tools, economic factors, and safety and the law. Individual chapters discuss how to deal with the troubled employee, how to conduct an accident investigation, how to ensure and maintain quality in a medical surveillance program, how to use workers compensation data to identify high-risk groups, how to apply simulation modelling and analysis to occupational safety and health, how to survive workplace litigation, and much more.
