Titles raise awareness of accident prevention

Spotlight Titles for National Safety Month

By IGI Global Scientific Publishing on Jun 6, 2016
Spotlight Titles for National Safety Month The National Safety Council (NSC) saves lives by preventing injuries and deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the roads through leadership, research, education and advocacy. For 100 years, the NSC has been the leading safety advocate preventing unintentional injuries and death. Join NSC and thousands of organizations across the country to raise awareness of what it takes to stay safe. Observed annually in June, National Safety Month focuses on reducing leading causes of injury and death at work, on the road and in our homes and communities.

In observance of this event, IGI Global would like to bring attention to a few premier research titles that support issues associated with this important cause.
