Life of Industrial workers is becoming more and more prone to danger. The
Industries are becoming more in number, size and sophistication. Every year, lakhs and
lakhs of workers meet accidents in factories, mines and workshops leading to injuries,
permanent disabilities and sometime deaths.
Accidents may be caused by unsafe working environments, defective plant and
equipments, poor supervision, careless acts etc., Industrial safety management is a vital part
of the human resources management in any industry because it ensures job satisfaction, job
security and motivates the employees for higher productivity. Also, it helps in loss control
for the overall benefit of the organization. Hence, industrial safety is beneficial to the

II. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
2.1 Introduction
An organization is made up of four resources, namely men, material, money and
machinery. Of these, the first one is living one and the other three are non-living i.e., non-
human. It is the human or people that make use of non-human resources. Hence, people
are the most significant resources in an organization. It is man who makes all the
difference in organizations. According to Peter F. Drucker, man, of all the resources
available to man, can grow and develop. Human resources are heterogeneous in the sensethat they differ in personality, perception, emotions, values, attitudes, motives and modes
of thoughts.
2.1.2 Safety
Safety, in simple terms, means freedom from the occurrence or risk of injury or
loss. Industrial safety or Employee safety refers to the protection of workers from the
danger of industrial accidents.
2.1.3 Accidents
An Accident, is an unplanned and uncontrolled event in which an action or reaction
of an object, a substance, a person, or a radiation results in personal injury.

widely as a support to primary data.
4.4 SAMPLING SIZE AND TECHNIQUE
4.4.1 Size of the sample
It refers to the number of items to be selected from the universe to constitute as a
sample. In this study 100 employees of Anglo French Textiles PTC Ltd., was selected as
size of sample.

4.5 STATISTICAL TOOLS USED
To analyze and interpret collected data the following statistical tools were used.
1) Percentage method
2) Weighted average method
3) Chi-square analysis
4.5.1 Percentage method:
The percentage is used for making comparison between two or more series
of data. It can be generally calculated as
No. of respondents favorable
x 100
Percentage of respondent =
Total no of respondents
4.5.2 Weighted average method
The weighted average method can be calculated by the following
formula
Here
XW = WX / X
-
8/2/2019 Term 3 Cis Report
24/58
XW represents the weighted average
X represents the value of variable
W represents the weight given to the variable.
4.5.3 Chi-square analysis:
Chi-square analysis in statistics is to test the goodness of fit to verify
the distribution of observed data with assumed theoretical distribution.
Therefore it is a measure to study the divergence of actual and expected
frequencies.
The formula for computing chi-square is as follows.
The calculated value of chi-square is compared with the table of chi-square
for the given degrees of freedom at the specified level of significance. If
the calculated value is greater than the tabulated value then the difference
between the observed frequency and the expected frequency are
significant. the degrees of freedom is (n-2) where n is number of
observed frequencies and in case of contingency table the degrees of
freedom is (C-1) (R-1) where C is number of columns and R is number
of rows.
Chi-square = {(O-E) 2 / E}

6.2 SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The statutory provisions on safety are adequate for the time being. Effective
enforcement is the current need.
2. The organization should provide sufficient personal protective equipments to
employees working in all the departments.
3. Every fatal accident should thoroughly be enquired into and given wide
publicity among workers.
4. The Organization should arrange for the medical check- ups at regular period of
time.
5. If the Organization follows material handling principles and the machines are
guarded properly there is a chance to reduce majority accidents happening
inside their organization.
6. The factory inspectorate should advise and assist employers in drawing up
induction and training programme in safety.
7. Workers reluctance to use safety equipment either because it is inconvenient or
because it has been used by others should be removed through education.
8. Analyzing each accident and including what safety practice was violated.
Management must come forward to reward the department which considerably
reduced the number of accidents in addition to some financial incentive etc.
9. To reduce dust from the cotton good quality cottons may be used.

10.The using of exhaust fans will reduce the steam inside the weaving preparatory
department.
VII. CONCLUSION
The Study on Industrial Safety Management in GTN Textiles Ltd., tells that most of
the employees are dissatisfied with the safety management practiced inside the
organization. The organization has to concentrate more on safety measures and can
provide safety equipments like goggles, gloves, shoes, masks, etc., to improve the safety
inside the organization.
The safety training must be given properly and compulsorily to avoid accidents
inside the organization. The first aid training must be given to both the labour andsupervisors who are working in various departments. This will improve the safety of the
organization.

8.1 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
The time period of the study is short, so detailed study was not made.
Only certain factors are considered in this study to measure the Safety Measures
provided inside the GTN Textiles Ltd.
Some false information might be given by the employees due to fear of their
superiors.

8.2 SCOPE FOR FURTHER STUDY
The sample size taken for this study is only 100; it can be extended to a larger
sample.
The study can be done by considering some other factors to measure the Industrial
Safety Measures inside the GTN Textiles Ltd.
This study can be extended to measure the satisfaction level of employees on
Health and hygiene also.
