520 _a"This book provides an in-depth understanding of occupational hazards and safety measures undertaken in organizations. The book begins with a background to safety management in industrial engineering, highlighting the various issues of industrial safety management. The objective of safety management is to prevent accidents and incidents that could cause harm to employees, customers, and members of the public. The book describes the various safety performance measurement methods that are currently used in the industry. These methods are essential in evaluating safety performance and identifying areas that require improvement. The book provides several case studies to explain the safety performance measurement methods and explore the important application areas relevant to most industrial sectors. Safety measures not only protect employees but also employers, customers, suppliers, and members of the public who may experience an impact from the workplace environment. Governments across the world realize that poor safety and health performance result in loss to the state. Workplace accidents and incidents cause financial loss to businesses and governments, and it also has a significant impact on the overall economy. The book highlights the importance of safety management in protecting the employees and the public from harm and preventing financial loss to businesses and governments." -- from the Preface.
