SARASOTA, Fla., Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Stephen A. Estrin & Company, Inc., a leader in the field of construction safety services, understands the importance of the behavioral sciences as a means of creating means tested analysis aimed at identifying the underlying causes of construction industry accidents. Joshua M. Estrin, an associate in the firm, challenges the industry's historic beliefs regarding safety and accident causation in his recent article Is Safety Culture Just a Fairytale? in "Construction Today" Magazine (pages 44 -45) where he explores whether or not Safety Culture is in fact a reality or simply industry rhetoric. Estrin's behavioral research and analysis allows for measurable constructs that help better explain why the construction industry is one of the most dangerous in the nation and yet, has not invested in effective, proactive changes necessary to save lives. Under the leadership of CEO Stephen A. Estrin, Joshua M. Estrin analyzes industry trends in an attempt to understand the underlying attitudes and behaviors that lead to catastrophic injuries in an industry known historically for reported cases well above that of the national average and other industries with far greater numbers employed. Joshua M. Estrin holds a dual M.S. degree in Health/Mental Health as well as Systems Theory from the esteemed Columbia University and is presently pursuing a PhD in Conflict Analysis and Resolution at NOVA Southeastern University. He is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). His other credentials include: Certified Master Forensic Social Worker (CMFSW) from The American College of Forensic Examiners Institute along with continuing education from the Association Of General Contractors (AGC), including Construction Safety Management and Advanced Safety Management Courses as well as the 30-hour Construction Safety Course. Stephen A. Estrin & Company, Inc has been actively involved in the Construction industry for more than 70 years.
