Accident prevention is a broad issue and covers a wide range of types of industry and activity. It can be dealt with in a number of ways, and this book focuses on one of them: the use of experience feedback. This means employing the tool of safety, health and the environment (SHE) information system.
Students, health and safety experts and high level practitioners should find this a useful introduction to the basic principles of feedback control and accident diagnosis. It also introduces the various methods and tools of SHE practice, including methods of accidents and near-accident Reporting and investigation, and workplace inspections and SHE analysis and audits.

Finally guidance is given on the implementation of a computer supported SHE information system. The book is illustrated with cases describing applications during design, construction and operation. Throughout there is a balance between guidance on SHE practice and a comprehensive presentation of alternative solutions.
