Environmental Health & Safety Compliance Manual

The Environmental Health & Safety Compliance Manual helps simplify compliance with complex regulations, protect against fines and ensure a safe workplace. It is the only resource specific to California hospitals and health facilities.

The manual sifts through hundreds of federal and state laws plus Cal/OSHA and Joint Commission requirements to determine what applies to your facility, making this resource especially valuable. Topics include hazardous materials, biohazardous materials and infectious substances, radioactive wastes, pharmaceuticals, facility management, Joint Commission Environment of Care Standards and EH&S program management.

To monitor compliance, self-assessment tools are provided for four high-risk areas: hazardous waste, hazard communication, asbestos and underground storage tanks. These easy-to-use checklists help department managers pinpoint areas that need correcting. 262 pages. (3rd edition, 1998)
