| Summary |
"In this comprehensive guide to occupational safety and health, the authors have taken an international and holistic perspective, foregoing regional prescriptive models for a self-regulatory, risk-management-based approach to health and safety at work." "The book is also suitable for students on management courses, in which health and safety is being increasingly included in the syllabus. Managers, both general and health & safety professionals, will find this an invaluable international reference to the current concepts."--BOOK JACKET |
