A study scope that emphasises safety knowledge is essential for providing individuals with the information they need to work safely and follow existing safety regulations. This study examines the evolution of safety knowledge research based on publications productivity, subject areas, proactive authors, energetic research institutions, and the primary authors’ keywords. This study deliberates the bibliometric analysis of previous publications pertinent to safety research by using the Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases. A graphical depiction of bibliometric results is attainable using the ScientoPy and VOSviewer. This study found a significant increase in safety knowledge publications, with WoS publications outpacing Scopus in growth explicitly in 2012. “Food Science and Technology” has been the most thoroughly researched field. Also, this study revealed that “Food Science and Technology” became the primary focus of safety knowledge research. Osaili, T.M., and Jevnik, M., are acknowledged as proactive contributors to safety knowledge research. Jordan University of Science and Technology in Irbid, Jordan, dominated the number of publications. This study discovered that content analysis through the analysis of authors’ keywords is principally focused on “food safety”, “attitudes”, and “practises”, which are closely related and provide a meaningful relationship. This bibliometric analysis concludes that the safety knowledge research output is considerable. This bibliometric analysis provides an overview of safety knowledge research, which may accommodate practitioners and researchers interested in expanding or discovering a new understanding of this subject and establishing robust safety knowledge research theories and practices.
