Описание: This Wiley Blackwell Handbook of Organizational Psychology focuses on occupational safety and workplace health. The editors have drawn on their collective experience in collating thematically structured material from leading thinkers and practitioners in the USA, Europe, and Asia Pacific.
Описание: Occupational health and safety refers to the whole series of prevention measures and protection, technical measures, organisational solutions, and procedures that must be adopted by the employer to avoid dangerous situations for their employees. While it is true that total security exists in the absence of dangers, and this is a difficult concept to translate into real life, in the absolute sense, it is also true that the application of safety rules makes the occurrence of adverse events and incidents more difficult, and it always results in a better quality of life. Each analytical laboratory should provide its own "Good Laboratory Practices" and procedures must be the result of the experience and must be known, correctly interpreted, shared, and respected by all the staff of laboratory. The idea of creating a manual on occupational health risks in a chemical and biological analysis laboratory derives from the need to provide technical support for the various figures involved in activities requiring the safe use of chemical and biological agents in lab analysis. The purpose of this work is to provide workers with more detailed information on the main possible causes of risk in an analysis laboratory, as well as on the most appropriate means of individual and collective protection to be used at work. The manual also gives an overview of main laboratory safety standards pertaining to clothing and equipment as well as procedures and lab design. This manual can be a valuable approach to knowledge of laboratory risks in order to eliminate or at least minimise them. Finally, the handbook can also be a support to the drafting of internal safety standards, both for general and specific procedures.

Описание: In a globalized economy where work is increasingly tenuous, the safety, health, and well-being of workers has become a matter of some urgency for organizational leaders, and an area of intense focus for researchers and practitioners. The Total Worker Health amp reg initiative of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), targets policies, programs, and practices that address risks to worker safety, health and well-being in both the physical and organizational work environment, as well as beyond the workplace. Chapters in this book cover organizational approaches for implementing integrative prevention programs for addressing these problems. This includes applications for diverse worker populations, such as workers in healthcare settings, construction, corrections, and manufacturing for aging workers who may have multiple chronic health conditions and, for workers employed in small businesses. Chapters also provide evidence of program effectiveness for addressing work conditions that impact mental health, fatigue and sleep, and work-life conflict. This volume is for occupational safety and health professionals, human resource managers, policymakers, and organizational trailblazers who understand that ensuring the safety, health, and well-being of workers is an essential best business practice.

Описание:
20 murders every week. 18,000 assaults in the same time. All on the job. Sharp increases in workplace violence continue to take an unfortunate toll on American business-and its employees, families and communities. Preventative measures may be well-intentioned, but pose troubling conflicts in themselves, pitting each employee's privacy vs. overall worker protection.
A full-self evaluation of your business and its personnel may be the key to safeguard against workplace violence. Thomas D. Schneid's Occupational Health Guide to Violence in the Workplace provides the important guidelines for that careful, all-encompassing examination. Most books on workplace violence focus on psychological profiles. In a change of pace, Schneid examines the issue from a safety/health professional's viewpoint, taking all angles, legal issues, and potential ramifications into account. Chapters focus on not only in-house efforts to prevent violent incidents, but also government and legal standards directly or indirectly related to worker's rights and corporate liability. Make every effort to prevent workplace violence from hitting home: start with advice from the Occupational Health Guide to Violence in the Workplace
