Advanced Safety Management: Focusing on Z10 and Serious Injury Prevention

The 2nd Edition of Advanced Safety Management addresses the extensive changes made in the new version of the Z10–2012 standard.  The new edition updates extensively nearly all of the chapters in the first edition. A key change in the Z10–2012 standard emphasizes improving serious injury and fatality prevention. Four new chapters are written to cover this new emphasis. The 2nd edition of Advanced Safety Management also explains how the revised Z10–2012 is in alignment with standards issued by the International Organization for Standardization on quality and environmental management. It gives guidance on the systems approach to safety that Z10–2012 now emphasizes, and how to conduct risk assessments, which now must be done under Z10–2012. The new edition of Advanced Safety Management also explains new training requirements now specially stated in the Z10–2012. This new edition explains how Z10–2012 emphasizes that safety systems have to be continually updated to reflect real world conditions. It incorporates this new information by revising existing chapters and by adding new chapters on Macro Thinking – The Socio–Technical Model; Safety Professionals as Culture Change Agents; Prevention through Design, and A Primer on System Safety.
