The day was observed for the first time in 1972, on the foundation day of the National Safety Council. It is a non-profit, self-financing and tripartite apex body at the national level.
In India, it was set up by the Ministry of Labour and Employment on March 4, 1965. Its main objective is to generate and develop a voluntary movement on Safety, Health, and Environment.
