National Safety Day Theme 2024
National Safety Day (NSD) Campaign was launched in 1972 by the National Safety Council of India on its foundation day, 4th march and has since been organized every year. The Campaign now entering its 53rd year, has grown into a major national campaign widely celebrated by industry, trade unions, govt. departments, regulatory agencies, NGOs and institutions with the active support of the Central and State Governments and media. It has made impact on the industrial scenario at the national level by contributing to increased safety awareness and reduction in accidents. Started for a single day on 4th March as NSD, the campaign has now been spread over a week from 4-10 March.
The main objective of National Safety Day is to promote SHE culture in the workplace and incorporate it with the work culture. It uses a participative approach by employers by involving their employees in SHE activities and reminding them of their responsibilities in making their workplaces safer.
