Design for Safety (DfS) is the process of identifying and reducing safety and health risks through good design at the conceptual and detailed design stage of the project.
About Design for Safety
The ability to influence safety at early stage of building design is higher and at later stage becoming complicated and difficult. However, implementing safety designs in the early stage of the building lifecycle i.e., at the conceptual and design stage can significantly reduce the overall costs that might incur in later stages.

Influence of Safety on Cost
The ability to control the safety as the lifecycle of building increases becomes complicated and troublesome. However implementing safety designs in the early stage of the building lifecycle i.e., at the conceptual and design stage can significantly reduce the overall costs that might incur in later stages.
Benefits of Design for Safety
Minimize hazards to workers and users
Lower costs
Enhanced coordination
Reduced overall design risks
