This Handbook was written to serve two convergent purposes. First,
the Handbook helps managers comply with standards, rules, and
regulations of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(or OSHA for short). At the same time, the author also shows how
occupational safety and health issues may be managed for best

be protected from workplace hazard because he or she is, first, a

to managers, this book will be of benefit to engineers, industrial
hygienists, senior executives, first line supervisors, and all
other persons whose jobs are touched by OSHA and by issues of
workplace safety and health. The Handbook provides theories and

occupational safety and health management program may be designed
and implemented within any organization. The reader will note that

with their case report references, and the Author's commentary in
this Handbook. The reader may obtain and read these governing cases
and achieve an elevated level of profic
