Human Safety and Risk Management, Second Edition

Reflecting a decade’s worth of changes, this second edition addresses safety culture and models of risk as well as an extensive re-working of the material from the earlier edition. Examining a wide range of approaches to risk, the authors define safety culture and review theoretical models that elucidate mechanisms linking safety culture with safety performance. Filled with practical examples and case studies and drawing on a range of disciplines, the book delineates a risk management approach that includes a range of techniques such as risk assessment, safety audit, and safety interventions. The authors discuss managing behavior in work environments including key functions and benefits of groups.
