Year: 2004 Language: english Author: Richard A. Stephans Genre: Guide Publisher: Wiley Edition: 2nd ISBN: 0-471-44454-5 Format: EPUB Quality: eBook Pages count: 289 Description: The systematic application of system safety fundamentals early in the life cycle to produce “first time safe” products and services can provide significant, cost-effective gains in the safety effort in transportation, manufacturing, construction, utilities, facilities, and many other areas. The purpose of this book is to aid in expanding and improving the system safety effort to meet the needs of the next century by providing a basis for planning, evaluating, upgrading, conducting, and managing system safety programs. It is designed to be used as a textbook, a planning guide, and a reference. This book is specifically written for: - Safety professionals, including people in industrial and occupational safety, system safety, environmental safety, industrial hygiene, health, occupational medicine, fire protection, reliability, maintainability, and quality assurance - Engineers, especially design engineers and architects - Managers and planners - Students and faculty in safety, engineering, and management Students and others generally unfamiliar with system safety should read it straight through, in order, and retain it as a reference. Managers and planners may find skimming through Part 1 first helpful, but will benefit most from Part 2. Experienced system safety professionals are encouraged to keep an open mind—some will initially view parts of the book as heresy!—and be patient. A large portion of the book will be old hat to many of you, but several new concepts, techniques, and approaches are presented. Current practitioners may benefit most from Part 3. Part 4 and the appendices contain how-to and reference information that should be of value to all who are interested in the system safety effort. Part 5 is a new part devoted to process safety and particularly the U.S. OSHA and EPA rules to provide for safety to workers, the public, and the environment for those sites using certain hazardous substances above a listed threshold quantity. Most important is that that the level of calculated risk provides sites with a roadmap for safety actions. Part 6 provides a discussion of professionalism that is important reading for the student and practitioner as well. The focus is on the system safety professional, but much of the information pertains to other related environmental, health, and safety fields. A concerted effort was made to present information in a useful, clear, systematic, and understandable manner, with an emphasis on practical applications. In summary, managers, engineers, and safety professions—regardless of previous system safety knowledge—should benefit from this book, with students and others unfamiliar with system safety learning the most and those applying the knowledge benefiting the most.
