Identifying Activities and Determining Costs and Risks Associated with the Presence Of' Hazardous Materials and Generation of Wastes
Abstract
Current organization's decision analysis techniques are not designed to handle major environmental costs. As environmental regulations increase, the costs become a larger portion of overall operational expenses. The environmental costs are generally unknown and accounted for in overhead. Organizations are in a reactive mode to new health, safety, and environmental (HSE) laws and regulations. This research's purpose is to help organizations be proactive in considering new process methods. It allows the HSE concerns to be quantified and compared with the directly affected elements.
