Productive Safety Management
by Tania Mol
This is an excellent text that should form part of every safety and health practitioner's technical reference library. Written by a local author, the book contains many references with local context, and follows a logical approach to the topic of safety and health management systems. Starting from the baseline principle that systems are deployed as a technique for managing organisational risk, the book then addresses individual aspects of systems that are crucial to effective OSH performance.
