An essential resource to navigate a fast-changing and challenging
world, this book presents core concepts and practical insights for
enterprise risk management, business continuity management and
organisational resilience. Business continuity management is a
critical aspect that investors and company directors evaluate in
terms of organisations’ sustainability and future value
propositions, in the face of supply chain disruptions, threats of
economic recession, climate change and the COVID19 pandemic. This
guide demonstrates a simple and systematic way to ensure that
businesses are prepared for any crisis or emergency, including
steps to meet the specific requirements prescribed in the
international Business Continuity Standard ISO 22201, with a
particular focus on the oil and gas sector. The seasoned author
team brings their experience to bear on critical issues such as:
• Where managers lose focus on the need for business continuity
– and how to regain it • How to select and implement a business
continuity management tool • How to plan for the ‘macro
scenario’ that combines supply chain management, risk management,
business continuity and crisis management • How to best utilize
‘peace time’ to explore business continuity plans and
strategies • Why should organizations invest in business
continuity even when the “going is tough in revenue and sales”
This guide to understanding the role of business continuity and
management as an organisational strategy will earn its place on the
desks of senior leaders, health and safety directors, consultants,
corporate trainers and business continuity and risk management
professionals.

This book is a leadership guide to the effective implementation of
the ISO 45001:2018 standard. It takes the high-level leadership and
top management principles put forward in ISO 45001 and develops
them into a comprehensive discourse on how, at the very top of any
organization, large or small, leaders can drive the occupational
health and safety (OH&S) agenda and ensure the effective
implementation of the OH&S management systems. While the
standard sets out expectations for top management, this book
provides a clear explanation of the OH&S roles,
responsibilities, and accountabilities between those who direct the
organization and drive it towards achieving its strategic aims and
those who lead the day-to-day operations. It puts forward a
purposeful, easy-to-follow, and effective system for the
implementation of ISO 45001 whilst also, and more importantly,
maximizing the value proposition of such a global standard,
regardless of industry. The book is written for top management
teams of both non-executive and executive leadership, as well as
senior advisors, in all organizations seeking to effectively
implement OH&S policies and management systems. It can also be
utilized to create training and learning materials to assist with
implementation.

Environment, health and safety (EHS) management has become
increasingly important in the past 10 years, especially within high
risk and high reliability organizations. EHS is driven from the top
of an organization, and whilst there has been much research on the

and the director's role in leading or influencing change in
organizational safety/EHS performance. Environment, Health and

Organizations reviews the factors influencing safety/EHS leadership
and governance and addresses all the areas where the role impacts

best-practice standards developed by many leading organizations
such as the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the Institute of
Directors (IoD) and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD). This book provides exclusive insights and legal
imperatives for practitioners and leaders to inform decision
making, strategy and EHS governance, all of which can have a
fundamental impact on business continuity, developing company value
and the sustainability of large organizations around the world.
