Abstract: Implementing safety measures has proven itself to be a difficult task in most domains, but the field of emergencies management is surely one that stands out. This article aims at providing a thorough analysis of both the challenges one faces in order to implement safety measures in an otherwise chaotic environment and the different ways this aspect is being handled in various countries across Europe. Nonetheless, while looking at both the protective materials and the behavioral measures taken, this study also aims at demonstrating that safety measures are most efficient when being treated as a part of the action flow, rather than one of the steps that can be ignored once checked. In reaching the results, our study researches the different approaches of various countries regarding the use of safety equipment and the role of safety measures in any work procedure being implemented, with an emphasis on working in and around explosive atmospheres. At the end of the research, we provide a science-backed list of recommendations that aim at using international know-how in optimizing the safety measures in emergency situations management workplaces.
