Este artículo pertenece a una ponencia del Joint Symposium on Health and Safety in the Ceramic Industries, celebrado en North Staffordshire Medical Institute, Stoke-on-Trent, los días 10 y 11 de septiembre de 1987

Sumario: The author discusses the health and safety problems posed by the increasing mechanization of the ceramic industry.

It falls to management, with its all-embracing and often conflicting responsibilities and priorities, to tackle the problem of what is reasonably practicable in dealing with health and safety, so an important factor always will be the ability and training of those who manage
