About NSC:
National Safety Council (NSC) was set up by the Ministry of Labour, Government of India on 4th March,
1966 to generate, develop and sustain a voluntary movement on Safety, Health and Environment
(SHE) at the national level. Its mission is building capacity, developing material, methods, procedures
and strengthening the national movement (including unorganized sector) on Safety, Health and
Environment to prevent and mitigate the loss of life, human suffering and economic losses.
NSC provides a number of services to its members. These include organising and conducting specialized
training courses, conferences, seminars & workshops; conducting consultancy studies such as safety
audits, hazard evaluation & risk assessment; de signing and developing SHE promotional materials &
publications; facilitating organisations in celebrating various campaigns e.g. Road Safety Awareness
Week, National Safety Day/Week, Fire Service Week, World Environment Day, and recognizing
meritorious safety performance of organizations.
