ABSTRACT
Choosing the right approach The basic purpose of this book is outlined in this chapter to explore the human dynamics of occupational health and safety, and to show how they can be managed to significantly improve safety performance. The principles and practical procedures you will learn are not based on common sense nor intuition, but rather on reliable scientific investigation. Many recommendations seem counter to “pop psychology” and traditional approaches to safety. So keep an open mind while you read about the psychology of safety.
