A 56-page handbook for new Johns-Manville employees, opening with a welcome from president C. B. Burnett and a map of J-M plants. It explains pay, benefits, insurance, vacations, rules and conduct, and the company's history and products, which include asbestos fibre, asbestos textiles, asbestos paper and Transite pipe. The health section says that in "the J-M Health Program, physical examinations are conducted to recognize defects before disease is established" and that "Frequent surveys and inspections are made to insure healthful working conditions."
