INTRODUCTION: Environmental Health & Safety FEO Volume 2, February 29, 2008
As our ability to detect chemicals in the environment
has improved, our awareness of man’s
potential impacts on it has grown with the recognition
that, despite our best efforts, we continue to
find chemicals in the environment and health
impacts that we had not predicted. The shift to
making companies responsible for products both
at end of life and for potential material impacts has
come from legislation driven by a change in regulatory
philosophy called the “precautionary principle.”

Risk Assessment in the Workplace FEO Volume 3, May 28, 2008
This article discusses considering the
risks we face in our daily work and how
to apply the principles of risk assessment,
estimation, analysis and reduction to the
workplace. Everyday tasks may present
hazards that we never consider and the
author provides some guidance on how to
minimize their impact on job safety.

Information Management for Environmental Concerns and Regulatory Requirements FEO Volume 2, February 29, 2008
Global awareness of manufacturing’s
impact on the environment has grown considerably
in recent years. Concerns about
toxic materials affecting Earth’s ecosystem
and humans’ health have prompted governments
to take action. Frequently, that
action comes in the form of legislation
designed to restrict the impact that manufacturing,
use and reclamation of products
have on the environment. Due to the quick
obsolescence of electronic products, and
the current use of potentially harmful materials
in both the manufacturing process and
the products themselves, many of these
new restrictions are aimed directly at the
electronics industry.
