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.
