The commitment and efforts shown by malaysia in developing halal industry are in line with the country’s aspirations to become a champion of global halal hub. however, halal industry’s development is not only about fulfilling the market demands for muslim community but it should also exhibit the values of islam in a comprehensive manner. moreover, the development and activity in halal industry should apply an effective management tool including industrial safety that makes the values of islam as its anchor. therefore, this paper will discuss the need for safety management’s implementation and the concept of halalan-toyyiban within the framework of maqasid al-shariah. in addition, safety management which is based on cooperative approach will also be discussed. cooperative approach is an initiative that has the potential to be implemented as it is one of the purposes of the maqasid alshariah itself. neighborhood network for industrial safety management also exhibits comprehensiveness of islamic teachings in matters pertaining to the safety of employees, community and the environment. in conclusion, the implementation of industrial safety management, especially by halal players is not optional. it is not only a universal requirement but also a part of the teachings of islam. this is consistent with the framework of maqasid al-shariah and it directly providesa wider understanding of the concept of halalan-toyyiban.
