N2  - With increasing competition and growing production targets  coupled with pressures both from labor and government, industries  today face the problem of reducing accidents a nd its costs. This  study analyzes the safety performance of the company in study  using preliminary hazards analysis and fault tree analysis to  come up with a safety program . The much needed statistical and  other related information are also generated to serve as guide  f or management decisions.  Hazards analysis was conducted to determine the safety  hazards present in t h e p l ant. Based on this preliminary analysis  which consisted of a study of historical rescores and general  investigations, the most frequent accident was identified to be  person s hit by broke n wire. Fault tree an lysis was used to  study this type of accident in detail .  A program was developed to raise the safety consciousness  among the worker s in the plant that would ultimately lead to the  reduction in accidents. The program in c ludes a safety policy and  organization, its implementing guide lines , and an improve d  information system. Activities to minimize t h e occurrence of the  most frequent accident were identified and t h ese proved to be  beneficial to overall plant productivity
