"In his new book Greg Zigulis applies his over 40 years experience to the implementation of occupational safety and health programs. He de-mystifies the process of gathering essential information from regulators, evaluating and controlling workplace hazards, and ensuring workplace safety and health in the long term. The wealth of information presented in this book makes it a valuable reference for anyone striving to prevent worker injuries, illnesses and fatalities." Michael D. Seymour MS, MPH, CIH (ret.)
As someone who has spent more than 25 years leading manufacturing operations and transformations across multiple industries, I can say with confidence that Health and Safety Programs in Small and Medium-sized Businesses fills a critical gap. Gregory Zigulis brings clarity and practicality to a topic that too often gets lost in regulatory complexity or reduced to checklists.
This book does what few others do, it makes safety programs both understandable and actionable for leaders who may not have a technical safety background but know that protecting people and sustaining operations are non-negotiable. The guidance offered here is grounded in real-world experience and written in a way that equips organizations to build programs that actually work, not binders that gather dust.
For business leaders, operations executives, and anyone responsible for building or improving safety programs, this is an essential resource that connects compliance, culture, and performance. Gregory has given organizations a roadmap to not only meet their obligations, but to create safer, stronger, and more resilient workplaces." Kenneth J. Gembel, Ph.D., Senior P&L and Operations Executive
"As an environmental, health, and safety educator and contributor to industry standards, I strongly recommend this book. It delivers clear, accessible guidance perfect for small and medium-sized enterprises starting out in safety management." Dr. Georgi Popov, CSP, QEP, SMP, ARM, CMC, FASSP, FAIHA, Professor, University of Central Missouri
"I really enjoyed reading Health and Safety Programs in Small and Medium-sized Businesses. Interested personnel can read this book and take immediate steps toward continuous improvement of occupational safety. As a safety professional for 50 years and an advocate of lean manufacturing and lean thinking for 45 of those years, I have read only a few books that kept me nodding all the way through. The book resonated with me on many counts." Michael A. Taubitz, General Motors Global Safety Director (retired), Chief Consultant, Lean Journey LLC
"Any book with an Alice in Wonderland quote sticks with me! Often EHS pros at SMBs are there 'accidentally' and lack direction by no fault of their own. Theyre looking for someone to tell them 'please, which way I ought to go from here?'
Whether intentionally or not, Greg has provided a resource that can be read in order or by section as needed, and referred to again and again. Its meant for those newly involved in safety, but I found it to be a straightforward refresher for someone with experience as well.
If youve hired or promoted someone into a safety role with limited experience, please gift them this book!
I like that Greg asks readers to send him success stories; this book is designed to ensure the success of safety pros in SMB settings." Abby Ferri, Director, Networks, National Safety Council (NSC)
