Safety Handbook. Establishing and Maintaining Positive Safety Management Practices in the Work Place

The handbook was conceived as a structured framework for developing and maintaining coherent safety management systems in industrial environments.It is intended for frequent reference by all management and line employees. Divided into three sections, it begins with a description of the major guiding principles behind positive safety management. Specific processes for safety management are then outlined, and best practice guidance is provided for day-to-day safety management.The result of a collaborative effort by the IFA Technical Committee’s working group on Safety, Health and Environment (SHE), the Safety Handbook is designed to support the recently developed IFA SHE Principles.
