Health and Safety Law 5e
The estimated annual cost to society of health and safety failure is £18bn. The Government has recently set out targets for the first time which aim to reduce the impact of these failures by 30% over the next ten years.
The last decade has seen significant changes in the approach to health and safety legislation. It is no longer just dangerous industries for which regulation is vital. The rise in service sector industries has meant an increase in employees being exposed to risks such as musculo-skeletal injury and stress-related illnesses.
At a time when both public and private sector organisations are becoming ever more aware of the importance of promoting positive public images and enjoying good standing among stakeholders, safety specialists are keen to persuade managers to take a more comprehensive view of how health and safety can contribute to wider business objectives. It is no longer enough just complying with the minimum requirements of the law.

Health and Safety Leadership Strategy: How Authentically Inclusive Leaders Inspire Employees to Achieve Extraordinary Results
The purpose of this book is to awaken leaders to the unique opportunities now present in the areas typically delegated to Health and Safety. It is a strategy to utilize existing resources to fully develop and engage human potential to catapult business achievement. The confluence of Covid-19, the resulting burnout, the attention on diversity, equity and inclusion generated by the Black Lives Matter movement and the ‘great resignation’ continues to create openings to fundamentally change how we address personal development, sustainable growth and social responsibility. The argument within is that the better we manage the social aspects of the organization, the better our business results.
Elucidating to the reader the societal shifts of workplace culture in recent years, this text expertly analyzes the importance of mental health in the workplace, whilst also explaining how management and HR departments can improve. It examines who is responsible for generating psychological safety and provides relationship strategies that will improve performance. The critiques in this text establish why it is imperative for business leaders to concentrate on how their company culture affects their employees, and whether their employees feel safe, seen and supported. The concepts and practices in this book are the ones that leaders have used across the ages to create commitment, accountability and excellence. Managers will benefit from a deeper understanding of how these issues impact every aspect of organizational performance.
This book is essential reading for executives, leaders and those interested in leadership. They could be in the C-suite, operations, health and safety and HR. It is also directly relevant to organization development and change management specialists interested in including safety within their practice.

Health and Safety, Environment and Quality Audits: A Risk-based Approach
Internal auditing is an essential tool for managing compliance and for initiating and driving continual improvement in any organization’s systematic HSEQ performance.
Health and Safety, Environment and Quality Audits includes the latest health and safety, environmental and quality management system standards―ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018.

It provides a step-by-step route through The Audit AdventureTM to provide a high-level, future-focused audit opinion. The whole approach is aligned to the international standard guidance for auditing management systems, ISO 19011:2018.
With thousands of copies now sold, this unique guide to HSEQ and operations integrity auditing has become the standard work in the field over four editions, while securing bestseller status in Australasia, Europe, North America, and South Africa.
