Summary

"The field of occupational safety and health has undergone significant change over the past three decades. There are many reasons for this. Some of the more prominent reasons include the following: technological changes that have introduced new hazards in the workplace; proliferation of health and safety legislation and corresponding regulations; increased pressure from regulatory agencies; realization by executives that workers in a safe and healthy workplace are typically more productive; health care and workers' compensation cost increases; increased pressure from environmental groups and the public; a growing interest in ethics and corporate responsibility; professionalization of health and safety occupations; increased pressure from labor organizations and employees in general; rapidly mounting costs associated with product safety and other types of litigation; and increasing incidents of workplace violence. All of these factors, when combined, have made the job of the modern safety and health professional more challenging and more important than it has ever been. These factors have also created a need for an up-to-date book on workplace safety and health that contains the latest information needed by people who will practice this profession in an age of global competition and rapid technological change"-- Provided by publisher.
