How to instigate and implement the needed reform is a timely issue that is currently being debated. \u003ci\u003eReforming the Workplace\u003c\/i\u003e is an account of a successful program that is now a model for nationwide improvements in various regulatory agencies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJoseph Rees's focus is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), which in 1982 announced a major shift in policy, from strict government regulation to self-regulation by industries with proven safety records. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn California, this resulted in the Cooperative Compliance Program (CCP), an arrangement among labor unions, management, and California OSHA that became responsible for overseeing safety regulations at seven large construction sites throughout the state. In his detailed study of the CCP, Joseph Rees provides important empirical data and assesses the reasons the program succeeded. That success is so important, he demonstrates, because the CCP represents a different approach to reform, self-regulation, that can be extended to and tailored for many troubled agencies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eReforming the Workplace\u003c\/i\u003e is a comprehensive study that will be a valuable resource for scholars and students of law and social policy in general, and of federal regulation policies in particular.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoseph V.
