An effective safety culture will eventually lead to the desired goal of zero incidents in the work place, and this book will provide an understanding of what is needed to reach this goal.  The authors present reference material for all phases of building a safety management system and ultimately developing a safety program that fits the culture.This volume offers the most comprehensive approach to developing an effective safety culture. Information is easily accessible as the authors move first through, understanding the cost of incidents, then to perspectives and descriptions of management systems, principal management leadership traits, establishing and evaluating goals and objectives, providing visible leadership, and assigning required responsibilities. In addition, you are given the means to systematically identifying hazards and develop your own hazard inventory and control system. Further information on OSHA requirements for training, behavior-based safety processes, and the development of a job hazard analysis for each task is available as well. Valuable case studies, from the authors' own experience in the industry, are used throughout to demonstrate the concepts presented.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePart 1: Characteristics of an Effective Safety Culture\u003cbr\u003e Does Management Commitment Make a Difference\u003cbr\u003e Defining a Value System\u003cbr\u003e Voluntary Guidelines for Safety Management\u003cbr\u003e Part 2: Management Aspects of an Effective Safety Culture\u003cbr\u003e Management's Role In Developing an Effective Safety Culture\u003cbr\u003e Journey to a Safety Culture: Determining The Direction of Your Management System\u003cbr\u003e Management Leadership: Demonstrating Commitment\u003cbr\u003e Employee Participation\u003cbr\u003e Assigning Safety Responsibilities\u003cbr\u003e Developing Accountability\u003cbr\u003e Part 3: Safety and Health Programs That Support the Safety Culture\u003cbr\u003e Developing a Hazard Inventory\u003cbr\u003e Developing a Hazard Prevention and Control System\u003cbr\u003e Incident Investigation\u003cbr\u003e Establishing a Medical Surveillance Program\u003cbr\u003e Defining Safety and Health Training\u003cbr\u003e Conducting Job Hazard Analysis\u003cbr\u003e Understanding Behavioral-Based Safety\u003cbr\u003e Part 4: Measuring the Safety Culture\u003cbr\u003e Safety and Health Program Assessment\u003cbr\u003e Appendices\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Health \u0026amp; safety issues [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Health \u0026amp; safety issues\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Health%20\u0026amp;%20safety%20issues%20%5BKNXC%5D%22\"\u003eKNXC\u003c\/a\u003e], Management \u0026amp; management techniques [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Management \u0026amp; management techniques\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Management%20\u0026amp;%20management%20techniques%20%5BKJM%5D%22\"\u003eKJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Butterworth-Heinemann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648673534232,"sku":"9780750674119","price":45.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780750674119.jpg?v=1694093241","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/developing-an-effective-safety-culture-a-leadership-approach-hardback-9780750674119","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
