A Safety System is a system that prevents hazardous events and ensures safe operation.
- AKA: Safety Control System, Protective System, Safety Management System.
- Context:
- It can typically detect Hazardous Conditions through sensor monitoring.
- It can typically trigger Emergency Shutdowns when danger thresholds are exceeded.
- It can typically maintain Safe States during system failures.
- It can often provide Redundant Protection through backup systems.
- It can often generate Safety Reports for regulatory compliance.
- It can often require Safety Certification from regulatory authoritys.
- It can often implement Safety Gate Patterns for action control.
- It can range from being a Manual Safety System to being an Automated Safety System, depending on its automation level.
- It can range from being a Hardware Safety System to being a Software Safety System, depending on its implementation type.
- It can range from being a Reactive Safety System to being a Proactive Safety System, depending on its response strategy.
- It can range from being a Single-Layer Safety System to being a Multi-Layer Safety System, depending on its defense depth.

- Examples:
- Industrial Safety Systems, such as:
- Transportation Safety Systems, such as:
- AI Safety Systems, such as:
- ...
- Counter-Examples:
- Performance System, which optimizes efficiency rather than safety.
- Monitoring System, which observes without active protection.
- Quality System, which focuses on product standards rather than safety measures.
