Description of Environmental Health and Safety Auditing Handbook
McGraw-Hill launched environmental auditing when the first edition of Environmental, Health and Safety Auditing Handbook appeared in 1984. Now Lee Harrison's fully revised second edition pulls together a decade's worth of changes while retaining the clear, simple auditing guidelines that have made this guide such a success.

You'll see how to use auditing as an assurance tool for company officials, as a way to identify and reduce risk, and as a foundation for assessing management systems and internal controls. And you'll get the step-by-step procedures you need to:

- develop your own EHS auditing manual of principles, standards, goals and objectives
- gain people's trust and cooperation during interviews
- use experts from outside the company
- report audit findings
- develop follow-up and corrective procedures
- insure audit confidentiality
- and much more
