Area I. Topic E. Organization Structure
Introduction
"There are many ways to structure an organization to make it effective. As a result, there are many ways to assign safety responsibilities. For most organizations, there are tow major components: line and staff.... Safety must be part of every organizational element. Line elements must be sure that the work is done safely and they depend on the training, procedures and technical assistance of staff elements to know what is safe." — Safety and Health for Engineers, Roger L. Brauer, Van Nostrand Pub.
