Abstract
OSH practitioners frequently use technical communication to convey information to a wide range of audiences.
Documents and reports should be written and effectively communicated using applicable standards.
This article details seven key elements that will make technical writing for OSH communication more effective: project preparation and purpose, structure, audience, graphics and visuals, use of technology, review process, and communication of knowledge.
