Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial hygienists are being called on to provide expertise in more and more different fields. It is often difficult to keep up with the latest technologies in all these fields. This quick reference includes terms found in journals, books, manufacturers' literature, and other sources used daily by industrial hygienists and others. It is filled with nearly 5,000 terms in industrial hygiene, safety, and occupational medicine, plus relevant terms and abbreviations from acoustics, physics, chemistry, and biology. It contains vital information pertaining to bacteriology, environmental health, epidemiology, illumination, mathematics, medicine, microscopy, mineralogy, and other fields. Designed in an easy-to-access format, this handy sourcebook also includes terms and abbreviations used by government to enforce regulations in occupational health and safety. All information is presented in simple, non-technical language for easy understanding. In the health and safety field the disciplines of environmental health, industrial hygiene, occupational health, and safety are managed, supervised, and addressed by single groups instead of separately, as was previously done. As a result the health/safety professionals in industry today must be generalists instead of specialists. This book has been expanded in recognition of the changes in the field of Industrial hygiene. What's new in the new edition: Contains 50% more terms, definitions and abbreviations Increases coverage on each discipline Includes new entries from other disciplines such as epidemiology, microbiology, indoor air quality environmental health, and sanitation Features

Download or read book Concise Guide to Workplace Safety and Health written by Gary Chambers and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-01-05 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every organization must comply with occupational health and safety regulations. Yet it is frequently unclear which actually apply in a given real-life situation, plus the field is loaded with technical terminology and complicated regulations. Many managers, trainers, even safety and health professionals therefore find it hard to know how to comply, with exactly what. Written to make this important discipline more understandable, Concise Guide to Workplace Safety and Health: What You Need to Know, When You Need It systematically addresses, for each of the 34 topics covered, core issues such as relevant regulations, required program elements, and definitions of key terms. Organized for quick access to information, this handy reference book demystifies required documentation, training elements, medical requirements, recordkeeping, and more. Conveniently, the author uses the same 20-part format for every topic. For example, if you want to know only about the documentation required, you can immediately turn to a topic’s Section 9 (Written Documentation Required). If training requirements are the issue, simply go to a chapter’s Section 12 (Training Requirements). Also provided for each topic are links to quality background and training information, with sample forms and programs where available. The guide covers safety and health topics of interest to a wide cross section of industries and businesses. The author’s relaxed, yet focused approach and consistent format allow efficient access to a broad range of occupational health and safety information. The topics covered include not only those that are currently regulated, but also emerging issues such as injury and illness prevention programs, and the rapidly growing field of nanotechnology.

Book excerpt: The first comprehensive reference work covering safety professional terminology A convenient desk reference designed to fill a serious gap in the system safety body of knowledge, the Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety: Definition of Terms and Concepts is the first book explicitly devoted to defining system safety terms and concepts and designed to help safety professionals quickly and easily locate the definitions and information which they need to stay abreast of research new and old. Definitions for safety-related terminology currently differ between individual books, guidelines, standards, and even laws. Establishing a single common and complete set of definitions for the first time, with examples for each, the book revolutionizes the way in which safety professionals are able to understand their field. The definitive resource devoted to defining all of the major terms and concepts used in system safety and reliability in a single volume, Concise Encyclopedia of System Safety is the go-to book for systems safety engineers, analysts, and managers as they encounter new terms, or need an exact, technical definition of commonly used terms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A glossary of terms used in the discipline of occupational health and safety. The discipline of occupational health and safety is one of a very few which does not have a recognised and accredited vocabulary. It does however have a professional status, which possesses a vast body of technical knowledge taught by universities and training organisations throughout the UK. To many students embarking upon a career in occupational health and safety it means learning not one but several new languages. The language of the lawyer, the engineer, the medical practitioner, the psychologist and the occupational hygienist are all part of the Safety Practitioner's repertoire. This glossary seeks to define and formalise a wide range of terms in one volume, which will provide a quick and easy reference for those engaged in the profession. It contains definitions of almost all of the key words and concepts used in the NEBOSH Diploma syllabus guide. It will prove a valuable resource for the student of occupational health and safety at any level, but will be equally at home in the reference library of any manager who has to communicate with Safety Practitioners in their own language. Thanks are due to my professional team of colleagues whose consensus has led to the interpretations of the terms contained in this book. References are given in alphabetical order as key words or phrases, supplementary references are given in bold type within the text.
