Safety Analysis and Risk Control: From Theory to Implementation bridges the gap between academic theory and practical application in the field of safety and risk management. This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles of risk analysis, emphasizing their relevance and application in making safety a top priority across industries, offering both depth and breadth in coverage. Following an introduction to core concepts and methodologies, the book considers hazard identification, risk assessment techniques, mitigation strategies, and the implementation of safety measures, supported by real-world, integrated case studies and applications throughout. Each chapter provides practical exercises, tools, and resources to enable readers to apply safety and risk control concepts directly to their work environments. Interactive data sets, hosted on a companion website, encourage active engagement with the material, while an instructor's manual and lecture slides support teaching. As industries face increasingly complex safety challenges and regulatory requirements, this book fulfills an urgent need for clear guidelines and tools to implement effective risk control measures of relevance to students and professionals across the fields of occupational health and safety, environmental science, engineering, business management, and public health, among others.
