International Building Safety Day (IBSD) is celebrated annually on May 22.

IBSD is a special day dedicated to promoting and celebrating building safety and the benefits it provides to the health and welfare of people worldwide. This day serves as a poignant reminder to governments, communities and all stakeholders within the built environment to uphold the importance of building safety.

Building safety encompasses more than just preventing loss of life or injury from incidents due to fire or structural failure. It also includes safeguarding the health and well-being of individuals by ensuring buildings have optimal indoor air quality, thermal comfort, weatherproofing and accessibility. Additionally, building safety considers the environmental impact, such as a building’s carbon footprint and sustainability, which can affect its safety during extreme weather events.
