The resource guide includes sections on: general information, guides and courses, specific occupations and hazards, regulations, consultation services, and emergency preparedness. It also contains summaries of and links to more than 50 websites produced by commercial, academic, and government organizations.
NIOSH says the guide is intended to help small business owners and managers deal with occupational safety and health concerns. Others involved with the small business community may also find this guide useful.
