The importance of workplace safety education is being emphasized as a method to minimize damage caused by industrial accidents. This study identified research trends and major components of workplace safety education to establish an academic basis for providing education that enables organizational members to engage in safety at work. A literature search was performed by setting search terms based on education-related words, such as workplace safety education, safety engagement, workplace learning, and vocational training. Eighty articles were selected through the systematic literature review method, and the selected articles were used as unstructured data for research. The R program (version 3.6.3) was used to perform text mining. As a result of the analysis, the topics related to workplace safety education comprised four factors: education component, organizational risk management, workplace environment, and safety competency. This study explored the main themes necessary for workplace safety education model development and derived sub-components. In addition, this study identifies the educational content, methods, and programs to be introduced in Korea and seeks academic and practical directions for future research.
