Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Occupational Health and Safety Handbook-Volume 1: Foundations, Governance, and Socio-Legal Frameworks establishes the essential intellectual and institutional foundations upon which effective safety practice is built. This volume explores why occupational health and safety is a societal obligation, examining how responsibilities and authority are structured through law and governance and how ethical, social justice, and human rights considerations shape modern safety systems.Rather than focusing solely on operational controls, this book delves into the deeper structures that influence safety outcomes-such as regulatory frameworks, institutional roles, leadership accountability, self-regulation, non-governmental standards, and global policy influences. Through comparative perspectives, historical context, and real-world case studies, readers gain a clear understanding of how safety failures often stem from governance breakdowns long before technical controls fail.Written for professionals across all industrial sectors, Volume 1 serves as the gateway to the eight-volume Occupational Health and Safety Handbook series, providing a solid foundation for further exploration of risk management, human factors, operational safety, occupational health, and emerging global challenges.An indispensable reference for safety practitioners, engineers, managers, regulators, researchers, and students, this volume offers a globally relevant, ethically grounded, and professionally rigorous approach to the science and practice of occupational health and safety.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Safety is not achieved through procedures alone.It is sustained through people, systems, and leadership.In Volume 3 of the Occupational Health and Safety Handbook, the focus moves beyond physical hazards and regulatory compliance to examine the deeper drivers of occupational health, safety, and environmental (OHSE) performance - human cognition, competence, culture, and organisational design.Across industries, serious incidents rarely result from a single unsafe act. They emerge from interacting system conditions: flawed decision environments, degraded competence frameworks, communication breakdowns, cultural drift, leadership failures, unmanaged change, and psychosocial pressures. Understanding these dynamics is essential for building resilient, high-performing organisations.This volume provides a comprehensive, systems-based examination of the human dimensions of safety. It integrates contemporary safety science, human factors theory, organisational behaviour, and practical OHSE management principles into a coherent framework for modern risk management.Inside this volume, you will explore: - Human factors and the cognitive foundations of safety performance- Human error versus systemic human failure- Decision-making under pressure and cognitive bias- Competence frameworks and capability assurance systems- Information, instruction, supervision, and communication in practice- Worker consultation and engagement structures- Safety culture and safety climate development- Behavioural safety and behaviour change strategies- Leadership influence through a human factors lens- Organisational change and risk integration- Organisational learning, resilience, and memory- Psychological health and psychosocial risk managementWritten for safety professionals, organisational leaders, engineers, supervisors, and postgraduate students, Volume 3 bridges rigorous theory with practical application. It challenges traditional blame-based approaches and reframes safety as a product of system design, ethical leadership, and deliberate capability development.Rather than asking, 'Who failed ' this volume asks, 'How did the system shape performance 'By shifting focus from individual fault to systemic understanding, this handbook equips organisations to reduce error, strengthen competence, improve culture, and build sustainable safety performance in complex and high-risk environments.Safety is not an outcome of compliance.It is an outcome of design, leadership, and learning.Volume 3 provides the roadmap.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Microplastics and nanoplastics are increasingly being detected in environmental media and selected human biological samples, raising important questions about their potential effects on human organs and physiological systems.Microplastics and Human Health: Global Perspectives in Environmental and Occupational Health - Volume II: Organ System Effects and Clinical Implications examines the emerging evidence concerning how microplastic exposure may affect the human body.Building directly on the scientific foundations established in Volume I, this volume moves from exposure and toxicological mechanisms to organ-specific health interpretation. Rather than repeating the basic science of microplastics, it evaluates what current experimental, biomonitoring and human evidence suggests about possible effects on major biological systems.The book examines: - respiratory deposition, clearance and pulmonary responses;- gastrointestinal effects and interactions with the gut microbiome;- cardiovascular, hepatic and renal effects;- nervous-system and neurobehavioural responses;- endocrine, metabolic, reproductive and developmental effects;- immune responses, systemic inflammation and potentially susceptible populations;- human biomonitoring, observational studies and emerging clinical evidence;- association versus causation and the strength of current epidemiological evidence.Particular attention is given to the distinction between particle detection, biological interaction, measurable biological response and clinically significant disease.Experimental studies have identified mechanisms such as inflammation, oxidative stress, altered cellular function and metabolic disturbance, but these findings cannot automatically be translated into human disease. Similarly, the detection of microplastics in blood, lung tissue, placenta and other biological samples confirms internal exposure but does not, by itself, establish toxicity or causation.Throughout the volume, evidence is interpreted according to its strength, relevance and limitations. Established findings are distinguished from emerging associations, biologically plausible mechanisms and areas where evidence remains insufficient.Written for environmental and occupational health professionals, health and safety practitioners, toxicologists, researchers, occupational hygienists, healthcare professionals, regulators, engineers, policymakers, educators and students, this volume provides a balanced and evidence-based assessment of the rapidly developing science linking microplastic exposure with potential human health effects.Rather than promoting either alarm or complacency, Volume II: Organ System Effects and Clinical Implications provides the critical framework needed to understand what current evidence shows, what remains uncertain and what can reasonably be concluded about human health.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Microplastics and Human Health: Global Perspectives in Environmental and Occupational Health - Volume III brings the three-volume series to its practical conclusion by examining how emerging scientific evidence can be translated into risk assessment, occupational protection, environmental management, regulation, public policy and future action.Building on the scientific foundations established in Volumes I and II, this volume focuses on the decisions that follow from what is currently known about microplastic and nanoplastic exposure.Readers will explore: - Human health risk assessment and the challenges of uncertainty- Occupational exposure and worker health- Workplace monitoring, exposure assessment and the hierarchy of controls- Environmental and public health risk management- Regulation, standards and international governance- Plastic pollution prevention and circular-economy strategies- Sustainable materials and technological solutions- Risk communication, environmental justice and global equity- Research gaps, nanoplastics, biomonitoring and future scientific prioritiesParticular attention is given to distinguishing hazard from risk, exposure from disease, and emerging evidence from established conclusions.Rather than presenting microplastics as either harmless or inevitably dangerous, the book takes a balanced, evidence-based approach to managing uncertainty. It considers how established environmental, occupational health and pollution-control principles can support proportionate preventive action while scientific understanding continues to develop.Written for environmental and occupational health professionals, health and safety practitioners, occupational hygienists, researchers, regulators, engineers, sustainability professionals, policymakers and students, Volume III provides a practical framework for moving from scientific evidence to responsible decision-making.As the final volume in the series, it addresses the essential question: How should society assess, manage and reduce the risks associated with microplastic pollution while the science continues to evolve.…

Risk ? People ? Operations ? Leadership ? Industries ? Health ? Evidence and PolicyIts central message is simple but important: Better OHSE decisions depend not simply on having more information, but on understanding the quality, limitations, uncertainty and practical meaning of the evidence available.Dr. Yusuf Oladele.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Temporary works may be temporary in duration, but their failure can have permanent consequences.From scaffolding, formwork and falsework to excavation support, working platforms, temporary bracing and dewatering systems, temporary works are essential to safe construction. Yet they are often underestimated, poorly coordinated or treated as secondary site arrangements.Temporary Works: Foundations, Hazards and Governance presents temporary works as an integrated engineering and management discipline. It explains how temporary systems support construction, how failures develop and how competent planning, design, coordination and assurance can prevent serious incidents.This first volume of the Temporary Works Engineering and Management Series examines: - the meaning, scope and lifecycle of temporary works;- structural, ground, water and construction-stage hazards;- common failure mechanisms and warning signs;- technical, organisational and human causes of failure;- risk-based and proportionate prevention;- governance, responsibilities and competence;- communication between design and construction teams; and- inspection, monitoring, assurance and organisational learning.Although informed by recognised guidance, including the BS 5975 framework, the principles are presented for wider international application across different construction sectors and jurisdictions.Written for temporary works coordinators and supervisors, engineers, designers, construction and project managers, HSE professionals, contractors, consultants and students, this book connects engineering principles with the practical realities of construction delivery.It does not replace project-specific engineering judgement. Instead, it strengthens the knowledge, questions and professional decisions required to keep temporary works under competent and coordinated control-from initial identification through installation, use, modification and final removal.A practical foundation for professionals responsible for construction-stage stability, risk and safe temporary works delivery.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Fatal Risk and Critical Control Management is a practical guide to preventing serious injuries, fatalities, and high-consequence events by focusing attention on the controls that matter most.Traditional safety performance measures can show low injury rates while significant fatal-risk exposure remains. This book moves beyond general safety activity and examines how organisations can identify credible fatal-risk scenarios, select the critical controls that prevent catastrophic outcomes, define how those controls must perform, and verify that they remain effective where the work is actually carried out.The book follows a clear prevention pathway: Fatal Risk ? Critical Controls ? Performance Requirements ? Implementation ? Verification ? Assurance ? Learning ? PreventionIt provides practical guidance on critical-control selection, performance standards, field verification, control degradation, stop-work decisions, operational assurance, human performance, leadership, contractor interfaces, simultaneous operations, management of change, investigation, and organisational learning.Major fatal-risk applications include working at height, falling objects, lifting operations, suspended loads, vehicles and mobile plant, excavation, confined spaces, hazardous energy, structural failure, and line-of-fire exposure.A central message runs throughout the book: Control specified Control implemented Control effectiveEffective fatal-risk management therefore requires more than procedures, permits, inspections, and completed checklists. It requires credible evidence that the controls designed to prevent serious harm are capable, available, implemented, and verified when needed.Written for HSE professionals, engineers, managers, supervisors, consultants, auditors, contractors, regulators, researchers, and organisational leaders, this book provides a concise and professionally grounded framework for strengthening control reliability and preventing catastrophic harm.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Every industry faces occupational health and safety risks, but those risks do not arise, develop, or require control in exactly the same way.Occupational Health and Safety Handbook - Volume 6: Sector-Specific OHSE Systems, Industry Risks, and Global Case Studies examines how established occupational health, safety, and environmental principles can be adapted to the distinctive realities of different industries and operating environments.Moving from general principles into practical sector application, the book explores OHSE challenges across construction and infrastructure, oil and gas, process industries, power generation and renewable energy, manufacturing, mining and quarrying, warehousing and transportation, healthcare and laboratories, agriculture and food production, public services, maritime operations, aviation, and other safety-critical industries.Particular attention is given to high-risk activities and systems, including excavation and temporary works, structural stability, hazardous energy, process containment, machinery, mobile plant, occupational exposure, contractor interfaces, emergency preparedness, critical controls, and management of change.The book also examines lessons from major global incidents to demonstrate how failures in engineering, leadership, communication, organisational systems, human factors, and control effectiveness can combine to produce serious consequences. These cases are used not simply to revisit past events, but to strengthen risk recognition, prevention, assurance, and organisational learning.Written for OHSE professionals, engineers, managers, supervisors, consultants, contractors, regulators, academics, students, and organisational leaders, this volume provides a practical bridge between established OHSE principles and their application across diverse sectors.At its core is a simple principle: effective OHSE management must reflect the nature, scale, complexity, and consequences of the risks being managed.As part of the eight-volume Occupational Health and Safety Handbook series, Volume 6 provides a practical, cross-industry perspective on how organisations can understand their distinctive risks, select appropriate controls, verify their effectiveness, learn from experience, and build safer, healthier, and more resilient workplaces.…
