Abstract
Unsafe behaviour and a lack of safety awareness are critical factors that cause accidents. This study reviewed journal papers on safety awareness in various industries, food, passengers, laboratories, and patients. Among the few databases, Web of Science and Scopus recorded the most articles, followed by Emerald, Science Direct, Taylor & Francis, Oxford, and Cambridge. The geographical distribution of journal publications about safety awareness was also investigated in this book chapter. Most articles, according to the findings, were produced in China. The US and the UK shared second place, followed by Korea and Australia. Most individuals claimed that safety education and training were crucial elements that affected safety awareness. This study offered suggestions to safety officers when they design and implement safety plans. It also offered hints to researchers who would like to research this area.
