Making the Business Case for EHS, written by Robert B.

This BLR guidebook helps EHS managers align processes and systems with the goals of senior management, and translate EHS initiatives into bottom line results.

Managing Safety from the HR Desk. Many HR professionals are responsible for safety training and compliance efforts. This book helps guide the HR professional through the maze of requirements with how-to tips; helps set the stage for safety success at their organization; understand OSHA requirements; meet legal obligations; identify, eliminate, and control hazards; and includes helpful model safety programs and policies and model safety checklists and training guides.
