Safety and Security

Joan Moncrieff and Doreen Sharp

Chapter 16 in The Professional Secretary’s Handbook, 1980, pp 152-169 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Accidents happen because somebody, somewhere, is not thinking. Accidents can be embarrassing, inconvenient, expensive and, at worst, fatal. Even the most self-possessed and calm secretary can, under pressure, be in danger of being just a little careless, letting her concentration slip, or not getting her priorities quite right. It is far better to avoid an accident than to have to cope with the consequences. It is necessary to consider where the hazards may lurk, and the many different identifiable areas of risk.
