Discription

The management of safety in the organisation is a priority in all businesses. In Managing Organisational Safety Culture the authors discuss the core principles of safety management, accountability for safety, health and safety practices, and safety control measures and techniques. They pay specific attention to establishing a safety culture in the workplace by utilising the organisation’s vision, mission, goals and objectives and address how organisations manage that safety culture. Some of the features that make Managing Organisational Safety Culture a valuable resource are: • clearly defined learning outcomes and key terms at the start of each chapter to guide students and practitioners through the information in the book • information and examples that are relevant to all types of organisations in South Africa • self-assessment exercises at the end of each chapter to test the reader’s understanding of the material. Safety Management students, managers and business owners, safety officers and experienced as well as newly appointed safety practitioners will find the practical explanations of important safety concepts particularly useful.
