Course detail
Safety Management in Industry
FSI-XMBAcad. year: 2010/2011
Safety management in industry is based on the management system and is focused on the risk minimization. Significant support of safety management represent existing legislation derived from EU legislation in this domain. Logical procedure continue by safety audit and explanation of the safety audit results. The very significant possition in the safety management has human factor, which is dominant in the all steps of technical lifetime.
