This book takes a systems-thinking approach to allow readers to
understand how Workplace safety and health (WSH) is an integral
part of any organisation. The different chapters are strung
together by an overarching model of incident causation, and
underpinning models are presented to allow a strong conceptual
foundation. Practical WSH knowledge also discussed in relevant
chapters to ensure that beginners have an introduction to the
fundamentals of WSH hazards and controls.The second edition
presents additional systems thinking concepts and archetypes not
covered previously, the safe design process in Australia, thoughts
on learning disabilities and safety culture, and additional case
studies. Besides the strong emphasis on conceptual framework,
readers will also be exposed to the details of a WSH management
system and practical WSH processes, hazards and controls. A series
of online quizzes are available to readers to help them to
reinforce the concepts of each chapter.Undergraduates and
post-graduates will benefit from the systematic introduction to the
foundations of WSH management. Practitioners will strengthen their
conceptual understanding and widen their perspective by re-visiting
the foundations of WSH management through a systems-thinking lens.

Workplace safety and health (WSH) is an important area of any
business or organisation. A serious accident or ill health incident
can cause much suffering and distress to workers, co-workers, and
the victims' family and friends. In addition, the organisations
involved in the WSH incident will have to manage negative
consequences including increase in insurance premium, lost time and
delays, morale issues, union and community protests, and reputation
losses. On the other hand, good WSH can lead to organisational
excellence.This book takes a systems-thinking approach to allow
