This study investigates safety practices within Malaysia's logistics industry, a critical component of the nation's economic infrastructure. Employing a quantitative method, specifically a descriptive analysis approach, the research conducts surveys with industry experts and professionals, alongside a quantitative analysis of safety practices. The goal is to comprehensively understand existing safety challenges, identify potential hazards, and assess compliance with safety regulations. Drawing on international best practices, the study benchmarks successful safety models implemented in global logistics hubs, providing valuable insights into the Malaysian context. The outcomes of this research aim to offer a holistic understanding of safety practices and propose actionable recommendations for stakeholders, policymakers, and regulatory bodies. By addressing safety concerns and fostering improvements in protocols, training, and technology integration, the research contributes to the development of a safer and more resilient logistics ecosystem in Malaysia. Ultimately, the study aims to promote sustainable growth in the industry, ensuring the well-being of workers and the public involved in logistics operations while aligning with global standards for safety and security in the logistics sector.
