What are the best safety and health practices? To get the best answer, I went to a man who has conducted more than 1,000 safety and health inspections and audits in more than 300 different facilities worldwide in the past 20 years.
Paul Esposito is president of Star Consultants, a Maryland firm that specializes in EHS management consulting. For the past seven years, he has performed more than 150 safety and health management system audits that are equivalent to OSHA’s Voluntary Protection Program (VPP). Top ten lists are always a matter of opinion, but given Mr. Esposito’s experience, his list and explanations are valuable.
