The New Safety Person: A Practical Guide for Construction Safety Coordinators is a professional development and instructional guide designed to help aspiring and newly appointed safety coordinators navigate the demands of occupational health and safety, particularly within the construction industry.Drawing on professional expertise and hands-on experience, Ryland Thompson and Tabari Thompson address the challenges of entering a safety role where responsibility is substantial, workplace conditions are demanding, and practical guidance may be limited. The book bridges the gap between understanding safety principles and applying them effectively in real-world work environments.Readers are introduced to essential topics, including OSHA standards and inspections, hazard recognition, accident investigation, workers’ compensation, safety training, workplace communication, and regulatory compliance. The book also explores the interpersonal and leadership skills required to earn the trust of construction crews, collaborate with supervisors, and influence safety practices without always having direct authority.
