Abstract
Safety management systems persist as one of the pervasive topics these days. It has become an essentiality from once being an impending factor in new streams for the factor of business management. Many models like the ISO 9000 standards certifications have been taken up by companies and industries to behold their methods, approach and resources. The priority and intention are to see which are the constrains that boosts up the acquisitions of a system of management in safety which may be furthermore from the total quality management ethics, virtue and ideology or as an outcome of the enactment and execution of the required techniques for the management of safety, like the analysis of risk, process of training in terms of safety and the liability in the safety presumption. Many industrial sectors all over the world have been benefited from the use of SMS in an environment of the TQM systems by applying practices of segregation in management practices for safety. Consequences exhibit the prospective of TQM to elevate a SMS by its own self, even in the deficiency of evident practices that have been proved. The effects are sturdy and propose the upholding of the principles for quality patterns when practicing more formidable models taken up on management on the whole corresponding to total safety management.
