Whenever an individual has lack of awareness and
behavior of his/her work (not trained/not fit for
duty/make an error), risk of personnel injury,
property damage, and environmental damage
(pollution) gets the increase

Whenever individual has lack of awareness and
behavior on his / her work (not trained / not fit for
duty / do an error), smart safety system works as
safety device to prevent risk of personnel injury,
property damage, and environmental damage
(pollution)

*Smart safety system is utilized and applied. If the smart safety system is not utilized and applied, the
industry is categorized as a past industry even though it operates in the transition period (current
industry).
8. Recommendation of an improvement plan for smart safety system utilization into ongoing industry
Discussion
No Ongoing Industry
1 Identify the highest risk operation and all occurred incidents which cause personal injury,
property damage, environmental damage and lost income for the company.
2 Identify smart safety system (safety engineering feature/safety device) which could prevent
the incidents.
3 Calculate the investment cost needed to apply the required smart safety system (safety
engineering feature/safety device).
4 Calculate the total direct and indirect cost of all occurred incidents. Consider the number of
personnel and equipment/tool as a multiplier factor (every company may determine its own
multiplier factor formula)
5 Compare the investment cost in line-3 with total incidents cost in line-4 and do review for
prioritization.
6 Start to develop a smart safety system (safety engineering feature/safety device) on the
prioritized operation.
7 Apply mitigation action to identified high operation risk which not yet supported with a smart
safety system.
9. Recommendation of an improvement plan for smart safety system utilization into upcoming industry
Discussion
No Upcoming Industry
1 Identify the highest risk operation which may potential causes personal injury, property
damage, environmental damage, and lost income for the company.
2 Identify smart safety system (safety engineering feature/safety device) which could prevent
the incidents.
3 Calculate the investment cost needed to apply the required smart safety system (safety
engineering feature/safety device).
4 Calculate the value of industrial capital.
5 Compare the investment cost in line-3 with the value of industrial capital in line-4.
If value of industrial capital smaller than investment cost on smart safety system (safety
engineering feature/safety device), the best decision is to suspend the industry
commencement to avoid risk of loss due to personal injury, property damage, environmental
damage, and loss income to Company, except Company want to put initial investment on
smart safety system (safety engineering feature / safety device) before commencing industry.
