WILFRED,

I'm also looking at this subject. I'm currently working on a MSc in Environmental and Health & Safety Management by long distance learning with Portsmouth University in the Uk and am just finishing an assignment in integration of TQM and H&S Management.

I am a Health, Safety and environmental Manager but also get involved with Qulaity as I am a trained ISO 9000 system autodir and have been invovled with setting up 3 quality systesm for previous companies - hence the interest in this area.

There are a number of articles in Amercian safety magazines and also Total Quality Magazine that relate to this - here is a reference list:

I would be interested in information you or others may have in this area.

"You might be interested in a new Australian Standard AS4581 - Management System Integration, which describes how to integrate Quality, Safety, Environment etc management into one documented system. When combined with AS4360 - Risk Management, it provides the means to change our industrial paradigm to one which is risk conscious, proactive and empowering. The standards are available at www.standards.com.au
