Abstract
Precision is the ultimate goal of safety management. Over the past few decades, technological advances and applications (e.g., advances and applications of information technology) in safety management and its research have given safety managers the ability to pursue and realize relatively precise safety management based on sufficient and precise safety information. It can be said that safety management has entered the precision era. Therefore, in the present and future, developing novel approaches to precise prevention and control of safety risks is an inevitable safety management trend. This paper proposed a new and promising approach to safety management called precision safety management (PSM). The main objective of this paper was to answer the following five basic questions regarding PSM from a theoretical perspective: (i) What is PSM? (ii) Why is it necessary to develop PSM? (iii) What are the relationships between PSM and other concepts? (iv) What does PSM do? (v) How does an organization use PSM? Additionally, this paper presented the application of the PSM approach to the precise prevention and control of safety risks in a chemical industrial park as a case study. The main contributions of this paper are a theoretical framework for PSM, and a practical case for PSM. This study can help researchers and practitioners understand PSM and lay the foundation for its future research and practice.
