Abstract: Business is dynamic, and uncertainty is the primary concern in the business world today. A wide range of products and their accessibility to the consumer have increased the business to a global level. Large-scale businesses will impose more responsibilities on their employees and create a challenging culture to increase their production. When the need to reach production targets increases, there is often a probability that accidents to occur due to employees’ behaviour, either habitual carelessness or accidental carelessness at work. To efficiently handle the workforce, Behavioral Safety is one of the trending techniques that will be of great help. According to the National Library of Medicine, USA, it is estimated that 90% of the accidents at work occur due to human behavior. Work-related accidents and injuries are a great concern to all industries around the world. Despite all the technological advancements and safety measures that the industrial sector is adapting to, including benefits of Artificial Intelligence, the number of serious accidents occurring is alarming around the world. The International Labour Organisation (ILO) estimates that over 2.2 million workers lose their lives to work-related illnesses and accidents each year. Around 160 million cases of work-related illness and 270 million occupational accidents that result in three-day or longer absences from work occur each year among workers worldwide.
