Industrial safety defines policies and protection put in place to ensure plant and factory worker protection from hazards that could cause injury. Safety policies put in place by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) are examples of industrial safety policies. Industrial safety is important as it safeguards human life, especially in high-risk areas such as nuclear, aircraft, chemical, oil and gases, and mining industries, where a fatal mistake can be catastrophic. Industrial Safety reduces risks to people and processes‎.

Workplace safety is very important for every employee in the industry because all the workers desire to work in a safe and protected atmosphere. Health and safety is the key factor for all the industries to promote the wellness of both employees and employers.
