,Health and Safety: Risk
Management
Health and Safety: Risk Management is the clearest and most comprehensive
book on risk management available today. This newly revised fifth edition
takes into account new developments in legislation, standards and good
practice. ISO 45001, the international health and safety management system
standard, is given comprehensive treatment, and the latest ISO 9004 and ISO
19011 have also been addressed.
The book is divided into four main parts. Part 1.1 begins with a basic
introduction to the techniques of health and safety risk management and
continues with a description of ISO 45001. Part 1.2 covers basic human
factors including how the sense organs work and the psychology of the
individual. Part 2.1 deals with more advanced techniques of risk management
including advanced incident investigation, audit and risk assessment, and Part
2.2 covers a range of advanced human factors topics including human error
and decision making.
This authoritative treatment of health and safety risk management is
essential reading for both students working towards degrees, diplomas and
postgraduate or vocational qualifications, and experienced health and safety
professionals, who will find it invaluable as a reference.
