<P>This book examines how safety failings during the use of any designed product or system¿be it a car, a building, or a chemical plant¿can be mitigated through effective understanding of the conditions and controls surrounding its use.</P><P>Drawing on historical failures and their own real-world experience, Dr Andy Painting and David England explain how corporate culture, engineering safety, personnel selection, and proper safety auditing are key ingredients to maintaining safety in all aspects of an organization¿s operations. This effective strategy is also crucial to linking back to the design of future products in establishing where operational failures have been identified and can therefore be "designed out" in future iterations. The book challenges silo thinking among the various safety-related disciplines and shows how this can be counter-productive to effective safety management.</P><P><EM>Effectively Managing the Case for Safety </EM>draws on key features from engineering, de
