Safety Science, like its predecessor, the Journal of Occupational
Accidents, serves as an international medium for research in the science
and technology of human safety. It extends from safety of people at work
to other spheres, such as transport, leisure and home, as well as every
other field of man's hazardous activities. 

Safety Science is multidisciplinary. Its contributors and its audience
range from psychologists to chemical engineers. The journal covers the
physics and engineering of safety; its social, policy and organisational
aspects; the management of risks; the effectiveness of control techniques
for safety;  standardization, legislation, inspection, insurance, costing
aspects and the like. 

Safety Science will enable academic researchers, engineers and decision
makers in companies, government agencies and international bodies, to
augment their information level on the latest trends in the field, from
policy makers and management scientists to transport engineers. 

The journal focuses primarily on original research papers across its whole
scope, but also welcomes state-of-the-art review papers and first hand
case histories on accidents and disasters of special significance. The
emphasis is on safety risks, as distinct from health risks, but may
include both.
