This book offers a pioneering exploration into the integration of safety considerations with operations research, providing a vital toolkit for enhancing decision-making processes in hazardous industries. It delivers comprehensive insights and innovative methodologies to foster safety-centric planning and operations across various sectors. As the complexities of modern industries increase, so does the potential for operational risks. This book addresses this challenge by merging rigorous safety analysis with the quantitative sophistication of operations research. This book aims to create safer working environments and more resilient operational frameworks. The book is divided into several key sections, each focusing on different aspects of operations research applied to safety. Initial chapters lay a theoretical foundation, discussing mathematical models and statistical methods that prioritize safety. Subsequent sections delve into specific applications within supply chain management, transportation logistics, and production planning, illustrating how these methods can be practically applied to reduce risks and enhance operational safety. Advanced topics covered include the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence to predict and mitigate potential hazards and the use of simulation techniques to model and manage operational risks. Real-world case studies are presented to show the practical implementation of these theories in industries such as manufacturing, health care, and energy, providing readers with actionable insights and proven strategies. Additionally, the book examines the cultural and behavioral aspects of safety in operations, emphasizing the importance of building a robust safety culture and integrating human factors into safety planning. Ethical and regulatory dimensions are also explored to guide practitioners in navigating the complex legal landscapes that govern safety in various industries. This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals in operations research and management, especially those involved in planning and executing operations in safety-critical sectors. It is particularly relevant for those who aim to blend technical proficiency with practical safety solutions to solve real-world challenges in operations’ management.

Mohammad Yazdi's illustrious academic and professional journey began with his BSc in Safety and Technical Protection Engineering from the Petroleum University of Technology in Abadan, Iran, conferred in 2012. He further elevated his educational prowess by obtaining an MSc degree in Industrial Engineering from the Eastern Mediterranean University in Famagusta, Cyprus, in 2017. Immediately after, Mohammad integrated his expertise into academia by affiliating with the Centre for Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering (CENTEC) at the University of Lisbon in Portugal. He made significant contributions both in-person during 2017 and 2018 and remotely in 2019. His relentless pursuit of knowledge led him to undertake a dual Ph.D. program in 2022, partnering with the Centre for Risk, Integrity, and Safety Engineering (C-RISE) at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada, and Macquarie University in Australia. Before venturing into these academic achievements, Mohammad dedicated himself to practical applications in the industrial world from 2012 to 2016. He took on multifaceted roles such as a Firefighter, Safety Officer, WHS/OHS Advisor, and Auditor, serving vital sectors including power plants, and the oil and gas industry. His research interests and professional background converge at the nexus of system safety, risk assessment, resilience, process integrity, and asset management, especially concerning renewable and non-renewable energy infrastructure. With an impressive track record of leading large-scale energy projects and technology-rich initiatives, Mohammad offers invaluable support to asset operators, developers, and maintainers.
