Encyclopaedia of Occupational Health and Safety

The ILO's Encyclopaedia of Occupational Health and Safety presents a panoramic view of the basic available information in the field. The Encyclopaedia has been developed in parts, sections and chapters which correspond to the various subjects that comprise occupational health and safety. It has been designed to provide the general user with background information on the disciplines of occupational health and safety in an understandable manner that will, at the same time, be considered rigorous by professionals in those fields.

It is one of the flagship publications of the International Labour Office and is widely respected worldwide by health and safety professionals, students and policy-makers alike.
