Abstract:

This 14th edition of the Accident Prevention Manual for Business & Industry: Administration & Programs continues to build on decades of outstanding work by previous contributors to the National Safety Council’s flagship series.

Since 1946, experts from a variety of different subject areas have come together to make the APMs an important resource in support of safety programs and education. This update continues in that tradition, bringing to the safety, health, and environmental professional a broad spectrum of topics, specific hazards, best practices, control procedures, resources, and sources of help available in the field today.

This new edition of the Administration & Programs volume features updated data on injury and illness record keeping; incident investigation, analysis, and costs; as well as a completely updated chapter on safety culture. This volume also features two new chapters titled, Safety Professionals and Impacts of the Law and Homeland Security.

Serving safety professionals with years of experience, individuals new to the field of safety, as well as educators preparing students for a career in the safety industry, the Accident Prevention Manual for Business & Industry continues to be a valuable source of information that can be incorporated into the goals and objectives of any organization’s safety program.
