The ANILINE ENVIRONMENTAL writing staff is in the process of completing the first draft model Company Safety & Environmental Management Program document. This new style of safety plan for industry is intended to facilitate the transition of manufacturers and construction firms to the new ILO-OSH 2001occupational safety and health management system standard and the OSHA 29 CFR 1900.1 Draft Proposed Safety and Health Program Rule, as well as the ISO 14001 Environmental management system.
The ANILINE ENVIRONMENTAL Company Safety & Environmental Management Program is designed to be useful to all members of large and small organizations. The program document achieves this by using plan language, avoiding verbosity, and being specific. The document catalogs each industrial hygiene, safety, and environmental requirement placed upon a business and then provides specific actions necessary to satisfy each requirement.
The ANILINE ENVIRONMENTAL Company Safety & Environmental Management Program provides the who, what where, when, why and how about complicated safety and environmental compliance tasks. This includes often sticky issues, such as, documenting negative reports or discontinuing reports to the EPA. The document gives the tasks to be performed and the resources to do the job in the space of one page. In designing this safety program document detailed section dividers were prepared, as well as a detailed table of contents and index, to assure that any information sought is quickly found.
ANILINE ENVIRONMENTAL Company Safety & Environmental Management Program is currently available as a customized publication for your organization. A generic electronic version will be included in the coming book from The ANILINE Press A Perfect Safety Plan, How to write your Company's Safety & Environmental Management Program Manual, which will be available the first quarter of 2004.
