Integrating training systems for occupational health and safety, quality and environmental management

Quality, occupational health and safety, and environmental issues are three key areas that, along with productivity and service, must be managed effectively. Organizations face the need to develop integrated systems for the management of these areas. As organizations increasingly need to seek efficiencies, one field in which such integration can bring considerable gains is training. The present paper examines how the requirements for training in different areas overlap and how an integrated training program may be developed.
