Factors Influencing Safety At Work In Developing Countries

The study is concerned with factors influencing safety at the work place in less developed countries. The focus is on four important issues that we assumed to have direct effect on the functions of the industrial organisation and safety at large. These issues are: Conditions of work, technology used, economic and management. From the review of the literature dealing with these issues, we concluded that there is a big difference between the economy of the developed and developing countries in their objectives. The misunderstanding of such concepts is related to a number of factors such as lack of experience, political systems and culture.
