Summary

The standard work in the field of industrial hygiene. In order to be cost-effective, occupational health hazard control must be made an integral part of the production process. A proper mix of engineering controls, administrative controls, & personal protective equipment is basic to occupational safety. This 2-volume work presents safe, practical, production processes & is written by professionals who have hands-on experience & are certified in the practice of industrial hygiene. Covers organic & inorganic materials of a wide range of toxicities; materials handling, from small to large quantities; & effective controls for each process & material covered. Controls described are often applicable to processes not specifically described in these volumes.
