Critique ANSI's proposed safety and health standard
The 62-page "American National Standard - Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems" (ANSI Z10), the closest the U.S. may ever get to a workplace safety program rule (although voluntary) and a possible precursor to a global ISO safety and health program standard, is now available for public review.
Work on the standard began in 1999 by a committee of experts, virtually a “who's who†in safety and health from industry, labor, professional societies, business trade associations and other groups.
