Print: $17.81 Download: $10.00 All workers on a construction project should keep a daily log noting anything of significance. Remember, these logs become legal documents that can protect you and your employer in the event of disputes or other legal entanglements. From a safety standpoint, you should be sure to make notations when you instruct an employee or subcontractor on specific safety requirements too. This documents your attention to safety detail and, in multi-employer jobsite situations, can protect you from a citation by OSHA. This volume contains enough forms for one month.

Print: $14.97 Download: $8.27 William James wrote extensively on pragmatism. Pragmatism’s premise is that “the truth of an idea can never be proven,” and James suggests that we focus ourselves on the “cash value” or usefulness of an idea. I think that this series of lectures on pragmatism should be required reading for safety professionals. The pragmatic approach suggested herein by “the Father of American Psychology,” William James, has great relevance to the way modern safety professionals approach their daily tasks.
