Facilities Management Handbook

A handbook dedicated to the many disciplines which are collectively classed under facilities management, including finance, health and safety, security/access, insurance, outsourcing, maintenance of workplace facilities, building and the environment, employment protection and estate management. The manual provides essential guidance on the law and practice of these various areas, with emphasis on practical implications and a "how to" approach, including budget summary spreadsheets, cost-benefit analyses, case studies and policy statements on effective working practices. The reference should be useful to those involved in running facilities, from managing directors, finance directors and company secretaries to personnel and health and safety managers. It can also be used by students on facilities management and estate and property management courses for the practical element.
