Download or read book Construction Safety Management Systems written by Steve Rowlinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-04-29 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction industry has a distressingly poor safety record, whether measured in absolute terms or alongside other industries. The level of construction safety in a country is influenced by factors such as variations in the labour forces, shifting economies, insurance rates, legal ramifications and the stage of technological development. Yet the problem is a world-wide one, and many of the ways of tackling it can be applied across countries. Effective tools include designing, preplanning, training, management commitment and the development of a safety culture. The introduction and operation of effective safety management systems represents a viable way forwards, but these systems are all too rarely implemented. How can this be done? Should we go back to prescriptive legislation? This book considers these questions by drawing together leading-edge research papers from the proceedings of an international conference conducted by a commission (W099) on Safety and Health on Construction Sites of CIB, the international council of building research organisations.

One former marine in particular sets off life-changing fireworks that tempt her to reconsider her single status. He wants to be more than friends...

What he doesn't count on is running into a fiery, passionate woman who doesn’t believe that love and happy endings are possible.

Download or read book Managers and Workers written by Daniel Nelson and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early years of this century, the classic factory system of the industrial revolution evolved rapidly into a new, identifiable form that would characterize American and world industry for most of the twentieth century. This transformation, as important for industrial managers, workers, and consumers as the initial creation of the factory, is the subject of Daniel Nelson’s illuminating synthesis, updated and expanded to include the scholarship of recent decades. This edition of Managers and Workers describes the interrelations between technological and organizational innovation, including such familiar developments as the spread of mass production and the emergence of scientific management, and other developments that were little known when the first edition of this book appeared, such as the revolution in factory architecture, the changing role of the foreman, and the spread of personnel work. The volume also incorporates the best scholarship of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, some of it stimulated by Managers and Workers, and includes a new chapter on the role of organized labor in the early twentieth-century factory. The focus of the work, however, remains the individual managers and workers who created the twentieth-century factory system. The preeminent historian of the American business firm, Alfred D. Chandler Jr. reviewed the first edition of Managers and Workers in The Journal of Economic History, predicting that this book would “long remain the standard work on the origins of the American factory.” The second edition will make that prediction true for the 1990s and beyond.

With a new job, a new house, and her husband by her side, Taylor is ready to put the darkness of her past behind her: a sister who vanished when she was a teenager. Taylor is ready for a fresh start. But when a tarot reader on the boardwalk offers an uncannily specific prediction about her next case, Taylor, ready to brush it off, is haunted by it—and can’t help noticing that it was accurate. In DON’T LOOK (Book #1), bodies of young men are turning up, dressed unusually in gowns and posed like dolls. When a tarot reader offers FBI Special Agent Taylor Sage a clue to finding the diabolical serial killer, Taylor has no choice but to open her mind and follow the trail. What she encounters, though, is far more harrowing than anything she expected—and may just change everything she thought she knew. But time is running out, and Taylor will have to use every tool at her disposal to save the next victim, whether she believes in it or not. Might the tarot reader hold the key? Or is she leading Taylor down a fatal dead end? In DON’T BREATHE (Book #2), victims of a new serial killer are turning up dead, chess pieces mysteriously left on their bodies. Brilliant FBI Special Agent Taylor Sage is determined to crack this one on her own, but when she hits a dead end, she must turn to the tarot reader for a clue—one that may hold the key, or may lead her right into a trap. Taylor, in the midst of the case of her life, must also battle demons from her past: dark secrets from Taylor’s past are threatening to bubble up—and possibly to end her marriage. Can she hold it together long enough to crack the case? Or might she be the next victim? In DON’T RUN (Book #3), a new serial killer haunts the city, leaving his victims’ bodies with an eerie signature: a single orchid. Brilliant FBI Special Agent and BAU specialist Taylor Sage, battling her own demons, tries to ignore the tarot reader’s riddles. But when she has no choice but to explore them, she may just wish she hadn’t. With the FBI, police and local horticulturalists stumped, it’s up to Taylor to connect the dots. But as Taylor’s marriage crumbles around her and she struggles to connect with her new partner, she’s under more pressure than ever to find this killer—before he finds her first. Could the tarot reader’s clue provide a spark of inspiration? Or will this case be Taylor’s last? A complex psychological crime thriller full of twists and turns and packed with heart-pounding suspense, the TAYLOR SAGE mystery series will make you fall in love with a brilliant new female protagonist and keep you turning pages late into the night.

But when a marriage goes bad, there is no better option than divorce to give men and women a chance to start over. Handled wisely, divorce can be a beginning, not an end. It is the doorway to a new life free of hurt, anger, and resentment. Felder and Victor cover each phase of divorce, from knowing when to call it quits, to choosing a lawyer, to the final decree. They explore prenuptial contracts, mediation, alimony, child custody, same-sex marriage, and life after divorce. They also share some of the most important facts one should know such as: • The first offer a woman gets when divorce negotiations begin is usually the best. • In all divorces, income rather than assets determine who pays what to whom. • Divorce is about compromise. Divorce court is not a boxing ring. After years of watching how divorce can go tragically wrong, Felder uses his expert knowledge, including case histories from his list of celebrity clients, to suggest how to make divorce more fair, civilized, and painless.
