The workplace safety market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the workplace safety market has experienced significant growth in the past few years. The expectation is that it will expand from $14.64 billion in 2024 to $15.98 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. This progress in the previous period can be credited to the response to the pandemic, measures to prevent injuries and improve ergonomics at workplaces, consideration of mental health in workplaces, and safety solutions guided by data.
The Workplace Safety market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of workplace safety is projected to experience brisk expansion in the coming years, with an estimated value of $24.89 billion in 2029, and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.7%.
Factors contributing to this growth during the forecasted period include strict regulatory environment, continued adaptation to pandemic-related obstacles, improved risk evaluation and handling, fostering of a safety-focused work environment, and a persistent need for personal protective equipment (PPE). Future trends within this period are expected to encompass resilience planning, shared safety platforms, implementation of sustainable and eco-friendly practices, adherence to regulations, and an emphasis on health and wellness.
The workplace safety market is experiencing growth due to an increase in occupational injuries and deaths. These safety systems in workplaces safeguard employees from potentially deadly situations, and the increase in occupational hazards is prompting more businesses to implement safety gear and practices, hence boosting the market. An example of this occurred in July 2024, when the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), a UK-based government body for work health and safety, revealed that men continue to experience the vast majority of fatal injuries, at 95% in 2023/24, in line with trends from previous years. Additionally, older workers, specifically those 60 and over, made up 34% of total fatalities in 2023/24. Consequently, the future growth of the workplace safety market is expected to be fueled by the increasing occupational injuries and deaths.
