Work and workplaces vary a lot around the world and so is the focus and competence of and on safety and health. In this book authors from all five continents give their ideas and their own experience to achieve a culture of prevention. While in African and Central Asian countries the socio-economic conditions are desolate, most industrialised countries around the world are in a transformation guided by globalisation, digitalisation and immigration. Authors address all these aspects, both theoretically as from a very practical point of view.Paul Swuste, Delft University of Technology
