Membership of the Institution is open to any person practicing Safety as his profession. Others interested in promotion of safety could join as affiliate members. Members with experience of 7 years or more in the field of Industrial Safety are eligible to apply for Corporate Membership of the Institution. More than 650 Safety Officers, Safety Engineers, Safety & Environment Managers, Risk Managers and Safety Consultants from various Industrial organizations from all over the country are our members.

With the increasing complexities of industrial management, many industrial organisations have already established their Safety Departments. But it is not clearly realised that if such departments are to be manned by suitable personnel, there is no facility available for assessing their competence nor are there organised courses in sufficient numbers for training the Safety Professionals.

The Factories Act, 1948 was amended during the year 1976 stipulating appointment of Safety Officers in every factory employing 1000 workers or more and in those with hazardous operations. Special rules for Safety Officers, framed by the Government, specify the recognised "Diploma in Industrial Safety" as one of the requisite qualification for appointment as Safety Officer.

More than 5000 qualified Safety Officers were required to fulfill the statutory obligation of employment of Safety Officers when the rules came into force. Hardly 2500 persons have so far been trained & possess the requisite qualification & experience for appointment as Safety Officers.
