INTEGRATING ENVIRONMENT. SAFETY AND HEALTH
TRAINING AT A NATIONAL LABORATORY
D. R. Larson
ABSTRACT
In a multi-purpose research
laboratory, innovation and
creativity are required to
satisfy the training
requirements for hazards to
people and the environment.
A climate that encourages
excellence in research and
enhances hazard
minimization skills is created
by combining technical
expertise with instructional
design talent.
Two Premises
The integration of environment, safety and health training requirements is based on two
premises:
I. Nearly every environmental problem has a safety and health implication; seldom does
a safety and health incident occur without an effect on the environment.
2. The disciplines and attendant concerns of environmental protection, occupational
safety and industrial hygiene continue to grow closer with boundaries that are difficult,
if not impossible, to define.
Premise Number One
Let us now examine these two premises. First, we look at the related incidents of safety
hazards to man and to the environment.-1-
