acting to minimize damage and maximize safety. Prepare for this
important role with JOBSITE FIRST AID: A FIELD GUIDE FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY.
This book takes a systematic approach to
responding to emergency situations, from minor burns to
life-threatening events and situations.
It is the perfect complement to hands-on
safety training, and it's ideally packaged to fit into your toolbox,
