Abstract: The role manager’s play in fostering safety at work has attracted much attention as healthcare environments increasingly more complex. Though they front lines in providing vital services, healthcare professionals also run several hazards in their jobs. The need of healthcare managers in supporting a mentality of safety in healthcare institutions is examined in this article. It looks at how managers may change safety rules, provide training courses, use safety safeguards, and guarantee legal observance to lower dangers at their place of work. The research underlines how important it is for leaders to establish safety targets, monitor staff members’ health and safety, and guarantee that medical professionals have the right tools and expertise to sustain their as least possible safety. The study also covers how laws, organisational structure, and budget allocation might contribute to improve safety results. Several research and case studies are investigated in this study in order to pinpoint the most important steps healthcare managers should follow in managing problems including mental health, stress, accident prevention, and infections. It also underlines the necessity of ongoing evaluation and change of safety rules to fit changing problems in the medical field. This article investigates how crucial managers are for reducing workplace hazards and ensuring everyone is safe by means of their decisions impacting safety outcomes. Ultimately, it emphasises that effective healthcare administration entails prioritising the health and safety of healthcare professionals above mere seamless execution of activities.
