TRANSPORT SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

This book reflects the accumulated insight of a wide community of transport safety and environmental professionals, regulators, and researchers whose published standards, technical guidance, investigation reports, and peer-reviewed research form the evidentiary foundation on which every chapter rests. Particular acknowledgment is owed to the international standard-setting bodies referenced throughout this book, including the International Organization for Standardization, the International Maritime Organization, the International Civil Aviation Organization, and the World Health Organization, whose sustained technical work over many decades has done more than perhaps any other single factor to reduce preventable death, injury, and environmental harm across the global transport sector.Thanks are also due to the many practitioners in fleet operations, infrastructure agencies, ports, airlines, and railways who, through their own published case studies, safety bulletins, and sustainability reports, have made the practical realities of implementing these frameworks visible to the wider professional community.
