This research involves applying mathematical modelling techniques coupled with data on work and safety practices to investigate workplace safety programs and improvement strategies. The thesis investigated the potential impact of different safety intervention programs prior to their implementation within the workplace. As there was a lack of mathematical modelling of the interactions between workers and workplace safety intervention programs and how these interactions and programs impacted the safety of the worker while at work, this research presents mathematical models that may be used as a basis for further investigation regarding Occupational Health and Safety
