Despite being an essential component of the corporate world, developing and implementing an effective Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment Management (QHSE) program in today's profit-driven business climate is difficult and complex. Add to that a lack of resources to help managers in successfully creating and implementing these initiatives, and you have a perfect storm of regulatory and contractual commitments forced on firms. The Guide to Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment Management: Developing, Implementing, and Sustaining a Continuous Improvement Program walks you through the obstacles of creating and maintaining a successful QHSE program for any business.

A planned QHSE program based on project management principles can benefit the bottom line in a variety of ways; however, the precise financial advantage is not always quantifiable in the short term and in hard dollars. This book, written by two professionals with over 50 years of combined experience, covers the major areas of QHSE and essential aspects to consider when creating, managing, and executing a successful, compliance, and cost-efficient program.
