Safety.Science — Open-Access Journal for Integrated Safety
Safety.Science is an independent open-access journal focused on integrated, evidence-based safety.
We publish research articles, conceptual papers, short papers, case reflections, methods and tools papers, and work-in-progress contributions across human, system, organisational, digital, and environmental domains.
Our aim is to connect research, practice, and real-world experience — making safety knowledge visible, accessible, and usable across domains.
Now inviting contributions.
The Safety.Science Perspective
Safety.Science approaches safety as an integrated phenomenon emerging from interactions between people, systems, and context. The journal connects evidence, insight, and action to support better decisions, safer systems, and meaningful societal impact.
The Safety.Science perspective: integrated, evidence-based, practice-oriented, and impact-driven safety knowledge.

What is Safety.Science?
Safety.Science is an independent academic journal for integrated safety. It focuses on safety as something that emerges from interactions between people, systems, organisations, technologies, and environments.
The journal welcomes contributions that bridge research and practice, especially where safety cannot be understood from one discipline or system boundary alone.
What we publish
Safety.Science publishes integrated analyses, case-based insights, and practical contributions that improve understanding and practice of safety across domains.
- Research articles
- Conceptual papers
- Short papers
- Case reflections and lessons learned
- Methods and tools papers
- Work-in-progress and open-review papers
- Educational and training reflections
Clarity, relevance, and insight are more important than length or formal structure.

Non-Negotiable Safety and Foundational Boundaries
We invite contributions that explore safety as a boundary condition for living, designing, operating, and governing together — beyond optimisation, metrics, or compliance alone.
Early contributions help define the direction of the journal.
