National Safety Day/Week

Introduction

The National safety Day is observed every year in India on 4th March. It is observed to highlight the importance of safety in all spheres of life so as to prevent mishaps and incidents resulting out of neglect or lack of awareness. NSD is celebrated on 4th March because on this day National Safety Council of India (NSC) was established in 1972. NSC is an apex non-profit, tripartite body (involving 3 divisions), registered under the Societies registration Act 1860 and Bombay Public Trust Act 1950. It has been set to educate and influence society to adopt appropriate policies, practices and procedures for preventing and reducing human suffering and economic losses arising from all type of incidents.

Safety Day Activities and Events

NSD has significantly contributed to reduction in the rate of industrial incidents and created wide spread safety awareness even in such sectors which not have been covered by any safety legislation. The campaign is comprehensive, general and flexible with an appeal to the participating organizations to develop specific activities as per their safety requirements.
