Codetermination: A business and government partnership in procedural safety for ecological sustainability

In this manuscript I take an interdisciplinary, systems approach to the regulation of risky operations that can harm ecological environments. I develop safety procedures aimed at minimizing the risks of operational failures and industrial accidents. The procedures are designed for practicing managers and regulatory agents to use in partnership across four interactive levels of analysis: individual (managers and regulatory agents), organizational (risky operations), industrial (groups of risky organizations) and societal (ecological environments).
