Safety Week From 4th march to 10th March

The National Safety Day/Safety Week Campaign being spearheaded by 
the Council for nearly three decades to mark its Foundation Day (4th March) 
has significantly contributed to reduction in the rate of industrial accidents 
and created wide spread safety awareness even in such sectors which have not been 
covered by any safety legislation. The campaign is comprehensive, general and 
flexible with an appeal to the participating organisations to develop specific 
activities as per their safety requirements.

Objectives

to take Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) movement to different parts of the country.
to achieve participation of major players in different industrial sectors at different levels.
to promote use of participative approach by employers by involving their employees in SHE activities.
to promote development of need-based activities, self-compliance with statutory requirements and professional SHE management systems at work places.
to bring into the fold of voluntary SHE movement sectors, which have not so far been statutorily covered.
to remind employers, employees and others concerned of their responsibility in making the workplace safer.

In summary, the above objectives are part of an overall goal of creating and strengthening SHE culture in workplace and integrating the same with the work culture.
