- Book Synopsis
- Health and Safety: Risk Management is the clearest and most comprehensive book on risk management available today. This newly revised sixth 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 together with the guidance in ISO 45002. The latest ISO 10013 has also been addressed, however, ISO 45003 on psychosocial risk has been dealt with in a companion volume, Well-being and Wellness: Psychosocial Risk Management also by Boyle and Charlton.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.
