Safety doesn't happen by accident!
This Second Edition is a thoroughly revised and expanded version of UNIDO paper The Occupational Safety and Health Aspects of Leather Manufacture from 1999.This manual has been primarily prepared for use by tanners and tannery supervisors. It has been designed to provide guidance and ideas on how to improve the occupational safety and health standards at work in tanneries and effluent treatment plants by presenting the sources of hazards in a tannery and pointing out simple measures, in a practical and easily understandable manner, for ready implementation on-site. A special attention is given to risks associated with hydrogen sulphide gas, H2S.
