A Statement of Safety & Health Management

About the Book

This book is designed to help managers or business owners to develop, within their own organization, a professional safety and health management system by following the advice for each chapter of the book and by then customizing the specimen safety statement part to record the changes. However, it is essential to follow this plan in a consultative way by involving all employees in the process. Obviously, this will engender changes in how things are done, which will need to be introduced, maintained, and developed. The statutory responsibility and accountability to do this is the employer’s because he has the authority.
