Описание: Many organizations tell us that work has never been as safe as it is today. They will show the lowest injury figures ever, and the rosiest incident counts in years. They want to be proud of these accomplishments, and perhaps they should be. But behind these results hides complexity and contradiction-a messiness that Todd Conklin takes us into with this book. For one, it is pretty obvious by now that trying to lower our incident and injury rates leaves the risk of process safety disasters and fatalities pretty much unaffected. Getting better at managing injuries and incidents doesn't help us prevent fatalities and accidents-we've known that for a long time (Salminen, Saari, Saarela, & Rasanen, 1992). The number of fatalities in, say, construction, or the energy industry, has remained relatively stable over the past decades (Amalberti, 2013; National-Safety-Council, 2004), even when many organizations proudly report entire years (or more) without injury. Lowering the injury or non- serious incident rate can actually put an organization at greater risk of accidents and fatalities. In shipping, for example, injury counts were halved over a recent decade, but the number of shipping accidents tripled (Storkersen, Antonsen, & Kongsvik, 2016). In construction, most workers lost their lives precisely in the years with the lowest injury counts (Saloniemi & Oksanen, 1998). And in aviation, airlines with the fewest incidents have the highest passenger mortality risk (Barnett & Wang, 2000).What lies behind these fatalities? Do they really happen because some people don't wear their personal protective equipment; that some don't wear gloves when rules say they should? WorkPlace Fatalities: Failure to Predict is the first book for the industry professional that speaks directly to this important challenge: If your organization is so safe - Why do we have fatal and serious events?

Описание: Revised edition of the most complete history of the New York Yankees in the 1960s. Yankee Pride chronicles how the New York Yankees won consecutive American League pennants during the first five years of the 1960s, then fell from glory starting in 1965, and landed in the American League cellar in 1966, going from league best to looking up at the rest in just two seasons. The story follows how the Yankees returned to respectability in the last three years of the decade, winning on pitching and defense rather than the power hitting that had been so synonymous with Yankee baseball in the team's glory days.Yankee Pride takes you year-by-year, month-by-month, even game-by-game, as the entire decade of triumph and struggle unfolds before your eyes. It includes player profiles of Mantle, Maris, Ford, Stottlemyre, Murcer and more, and includes over 200 photographs. Enjoy the memories.

Описание: Messages from the Stream contains reflections about life taken from Alicia's journals of many years. These reflections are from her travels, home life, and experiences in nature. They invite us to be attentive to our everyday experiences, wherever we may be, for how God or Sacred Presence may be calling us to "look deeper". The reflections are divided according to the natural seasons of the year beginning with Spring, and each one has a question for the reader's own reflection if s/he chooses. Messages from the Stream is not necessarily meant to be read sequentially. The individual reflections may be picked up, according to the reader's interests and available time
