Abstract

The safety culture must be systematically built taking into account the actual piece of knowledge and experience. The safety management establishing the safety culture has three basic phases: the standard (current) management, emergency management and crisis management. With regard to a present knowledge the optimum safety of the set of infrastructures is not the set of optimum safeties of partial infrastructures but the flexible set of measures and activities respecting the dynamic behaviour of individual infrastructures and their interconnection that is based on integral risk management related to human and other public assets. The implementation of integral risk management represents new safety culture in a given territory.
