If accidents occur in an industry, it is indication of poor
safety involvement of management. If safety programmes are operated in positive
manner, accidents are bound to be prevented. Safety matters need to be
analyzed, appraised and considered within the routine of business management.
Safety should appear as an integral part of the corporate system. While
machinery safeguarding, safety devices, and personal protective equipment are
essential for safety, human performance factor also deserves serious attention.
Ergonomic factors which affect human performance should be thoroughly analyzed
and workers be given total information and knowledge about their role and how
they have to perform their task. They must be very clear about the process and
how they have to react under emergency situations.
The development and application of safety standers, codes
and regulations enhances safety in workplace.
