Workplace safety practices are vital for the well-being of both employees and employers, particularly in hazardous industries. The present study aims to design and validate a scale to assess the Safety Engineering Systems (SES) practices in Major Hazardous Industries (MHI). Based on the primary components identified through an empirical literature review, a survey instrument was developed and distributed among the employees of sample MHI's in Karnataka. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), was conducted to measure the validity and reliability of the questionnaire. Using 'R' software, Partial Least Square Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) was carried out to confirm the results of EFA. The outcome emphasizes the relevance of SES prominence in risk analysis of hazardous industries.
