Workplace safety is changing dramatically. New management trends like Total Quality Management, teams and workgroups, reengineering, and downsizing all affect safety and health. In this book, safety visionary and TQM expert F. David Pierce explores how today's safety and health system was developed, what works, what doesn't, and how the practice of safety can and must change in order to better protect workers and contribute to corporate goals into the 21st Century. Pierce examines workers' compensation, safety regulations and regulatory agencies, professional organizations, organized labor, and traditional corporate structure and suggests strategies for fixing the "broken" aspects of safety practice in your company.
