It is a step by step, how to do it, roadmap, that will enable you to reduce Workers Compensation costs, and eliminate OSHA fines and accidents/injuries in your specific workplace.

This actual action plan lists, in order, each component of an effective safety program that needs to be done, and explains how and why to do it, in plain common sense business terms.

The authors 40+ years of actual experience as a safety consultant for several thousand American companies will guide you through the minefields of OSHA, Workers' Compensation, and accident prevention. You will learn the 8 key ingredients of safety and health and how to make them work for you. One of the books best assets is the actual tools you will need to build an effective, working safety program in your business place.
