Essentials of Health and Safety at Work – Free 105 Page Safety Book!
I was surprised to find this as well – an entire book online for free. This is a guide developed by the British on all things safety. Not a full handout for complex issues, but great for companies establishing a safety program, educating a person on safety and risk, and ways to combat the most common issues in the workplace. Excellent design.
