Description
This revised edition of a best-seller provides new students and safety professionals with a thorough and up-to-date overview of the occupational-safety-and -health field and the issues safety professionals face today. This Second Edition contains information on key issues in the field and includes new chapters on behavioural safety and construction safety and multi-employer work sites. There are up-to-date discussions on ergonomics, systems safety, and accident investigation. All major topics are covered in this comprehensive introduction, from safety-related laws and regulations to hazardous materials and workplace violence. The authors provide a solid philosophical foundation for the study of occupational safety and health, and they organize their material to reflect the American Society of Safety Engineers' new standard, the "Scope and Function of the Professional Safety Position." Filled with practical information, this new book examines technology, management, and regulatory compliance issues and provides proven information for daily use.
Explanations of the 29 CFR 1910 and 29 CFR 1926 Subparts are also included to help you determine which sections of the regulations apply to your business.
