Download or read book Environmental and Health and Safety Management written by Nicholas P. Cheremisinoff and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 1995-12-31 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume has been prepared for the Environmental and Health & Safety Manager. The EH&S Manager is a new breed of corporate professionals that are faced with the responsibility of handling both environmental policy/issues and occupational safety issues within organizations. Throughout the 1980s there was a proliferation of health and safety departments, environmental compliance personnel, and technical people associated with handling pollution control and waste management. American industry has been over the last several years contracting and downsizing their operations. In doing so, many corporations, large and small, are demanding greater responsibilities be delegated to middle and line function management. In this regard, many corporations today are moving towards a single management entity, the EH&S Manager, who's responsibilities require extensive knowledge of both the environmental statutes and OSHA standards. This desk reference has been written as a compliance source for the EH&S Manager. The authors prefer to call the EH&S Manager an Occupational Safety Professional and use this designation interchangeably throughout the text. This individual, as stated above, has a dual responsibility that requires both technical and managerial skills in two arenas. In this regard, this book provides the working professional a reference on both the environmental regulations and industry safety standards. Additionally, it covers management practices for on-site hazard materials handling operations and constitutes an important reference for establishing hazard communication and training programs for employees.

Download or read book Environmental Health and Safety Audits written by Lawrence B. Cahill and published by Bernan Press. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental health and safety (EHS) audit programs have become an established and essential component of corporate governance in most every major organization whose activities could affect public health and the environment. While many of the audit programs in existence are quite mature there continues to be an evolution of audit practices designed to better identify and control EHS risks. This new updated second edition takes a look at many of those practices and potential advances in the profession. Among the critical topics addressed are: What is the current EHS regulatory outlook in the U.S. and how might this affect a company’s and the regulator’s attitudes towards compliance and auditing? Are the potential consequences of “taking your eye off the ball” still significant? How does one know whether an audit program is actually working and meeting its established objectives? What are the best performance criteria to use? How can risk management be factored into audit programs and how individual audits are conducted to assure efficient and relevant outcomes? How can we get at the true risks and avoid the tendency to focus on “administrivia”? How can auditors become more proficient and how can we train people to help assure we maximize an individual auditor’s potential? Can the individual auditor be “all things to all people”? Can innovative approaches such as “virtual” audits achieve the same or even better results more cost-effectively? How can limited resources be applied optimally? The second edition addresses the key components of an EHS audit program and provides advice on: How to improve the management and execution of an audit program How to address the true compliance risks in implementing an audit program How to make auditors more effective and versatile How to help auditors understand the special demands of auditing internationally How to utilize innovative techniques, such as virtual auditing, to maximize a program’s effectiveness and efficiency.
