Produktbeschreibung

Based on Dr. Geller's best-selling The Psychology of Safety, The Psychology of Safety Handbook, updated and expanded, provides everything required to decrease the frequency and severity of accidental injuries in any organization. He covers all areas of psychology directly relevant to understanding and influencing safety-related behaviors. The cause of many injuries can be attributed to at-risk behavior or insufficient safe behavior. The Psychology of Safety Handbook not only teaches principles and practical procedures for improving safety-related behaviors, but also illustrates how to increase people's willingness to use these techniques to create a Total Safety Culture.
