Q1, Q2

1) Explain the differences between authority, responsibility, and accountability as they apply to OSH program management. In your discussion, provide examples of how your current organization (or a past one) implements these concepts. Is it effective? How can you tell? What recommendations do you have for improvement?

2) In the course textbook, Manuele recounts two serious incidents where inadequate management leadership and employee participation were major causes (pp.89-91). Drawing from your own experience or through research, find and discuss another incident where these same causes were evident. What corrective actions were proposed? Do you think these actions will correct the management deficiencies? Do you have any additional recommendations?
