Reproducible Articles Background
The
Safety Times Reproducible Articles
are the product of more than ten
years’ research. Nearly all of these updated topics were
published at least twice in the
Safety Times newsletter from 1992
through 2002.
The
information for each topic
comes from many sources. Before publishing each topic in the
newsletter, the topic was
reviewed by at least two CSPs (Certified Safety Professionals),
or by a CSP and a subject-matter expert. Children’s topics
were reviewed by a representative of the Safe Kids Worldwide
organization;
boating topics by the United States Coast Guard; the chainsaw
topic by a safety trainer for a chainsaw manufacturer, and so
on.
The
circulation of the newsletter exceeded 20,000; pass-along readership,
however, was considerably higher, as some recipients paid for
the privilege of copying the material. Safety Times clients have included
Alcoa, Avery Dennison, Boeing, Dow Corning, ExxonMobil, General
Motors, Georgia-Pacific, Honeywell, SBC, Sprint, the U.S. Postal
Service, and hundreds of other corporations and organizations.
These articles also appear in the multi-award
winning book, Live Safely in a Dangerous
World. A leading independent
publisher, Cypress House, edited the book.
With all these readers, and additional readers from the
Safety Times Reproducible Articles the publisher has never received
a complaint
regarding the material.
