This book provides a comprehensive update on recent developments of Jasmonates (JAs) and Brassinosteroids (BRs) in plant signalling and biotechnological applications. Over the last few decades, an enormous amount of research data has been generated on these two signalling molecules. This valuable compilation will enhance the basic understanding of JAs and BRs mechanism of actions ensuing tolerance mechanism of crops under climate changes for sustainable agriculture and human welfare. This book covers topics regarding the occurrence of JAs and BRs in plants, biosynthesis, role in plant growth and development, role of these PGRs during various abiotic stress tolerance in plants, crosstalk of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and plant stress mitigation, regulation of JAs and BRs signaling pathways by microRNA, along with physiological and anatomical roles of JAs and BRs as wound healing, regeneration and cell fate decisions. The cross talk of JAs and BRs with neurotransmitters in plant growth and development. Bio-fortification of crop plants with BRs in managing in human health issues chapter enlightened new role of BRs in human wellbeing. This book will be beneficial to scientists, researchers, agriculturists, horticulturists, industries related to the crop and food production KEY FEATURES Reviews the global scientific literature and experimental data of the authors on the occurrence of JAs and BRs in various plants Update information on recent developments of JAs and BRs signalling and biotechnological applications in plants Highlights the physiological, metabolic and molecular mechanism of JAs and BRs under variable climates Addresses the abiotic and biotic tolerance management by JAs and BRs Describes the role of JAs and BRs in sustainable agriculture and human welfare in eco-friendly manner

Written for users, this book provides a structured approach with processes for implementing OEMS based on the learnings and experiences from companies who have implemented OEMS. The book leverages the knowledge of experienced OEMS personnel to provide a compelling sense of direction for organizations in the implementation of OEMS. The book includes sample templates and tools where necessary to ensure successful implementation and sustainment. The content of this book provides a testing methodology for implementing an OEMS across any organization while avoiding the pitfalls others have encountered along the way. The book: Provides a simple and easy process to follow for implementing an OEMS Offers organizations an opportunity to avoid the implementation errors of early adopters and provides them with the ability of learning from the experiences of others Equipped with tools and processes to make implementation and sustainment very effective, thereby avoiding false starts Designed to improve HSE, business reliability, efficiency, effectiveness, and performance on an ongoing basis Presents a simple pathway for helping organizations across all industries including those that operate within the various segments of the Oil and Gas business, to become more operationally disciplined in the way we do business and operate our assets in a high-risk operating environment

Contractors bear the brunt of workplace illnesses, injuries, and fatalities (~80%) of the estimated 3 million fatalities and 395 million non-fatal injuries annually. This book provides a series of proven practices, processes, and tools designed to protect the contracting workforce. In today's competitive landscape, organizations leverage contractors for flexibility and specialized expertise, yet this outsourcing introduces safety challenges that transcend traditional workplace boundaries.Failed contractor safety management brings severe consequences, preventable injuries, operational disruptions, regulatory penalties, reputational damage, and financial losses. Drawing from two decades of cross-industry experience, this book bridges the gap between contractual safety requirements and practical implementation, transforming transactional contractor relationships into strategic partnerships built on shared safety value-creating environments where safety excellence drives rather than competes with business performance.Built on a methodology that has slashed incident rates by 70% in high-risk industries, Contractor Safety Management: A Framework for Delivering Excellence in HSE Performance delivers immediate actionable tools for HSE professionals and leaders, comprehensive prequalification templates, seamless onboarding protocols, barrier-breaking communication frameworks, and predictive reporting systems. Real-world case studies across construction, manufacturing, energy, and infrastructure sectors provide adaptable solutions for organizations of any size or safety maturity.This comprehensive safety management guide is written for executives seeking a competitive advantage, operations managers aiming to boost productivity and reduce workplace incidents, procurement specialists requiring balanced selection criteria, and safety practitioners needing technical frameworks for contractor safety performance improvements. The book serves organizations spanning from single-site operations to global networks, helping transform traditional compliance-focused approaches into strategic safety partnerships that deliver measurable business value.
