A systematic approach to occupational safety and health (OSH) management and concepts of knowledge management (KM) have developed independently since the 1990s. Most KM models assume a division of knowledge into explicit and tacit. The role of tacit knowledge is stressed as necessary for higher performance in an enterprise. This article reviews literature on KM applications in OSH. Next, 10 sections of an OSH management system (OSH MS) are identified, in which creating and transferring tacit knowledge contributes significantly to prevention of occupational injuries and diseases. The roles of tacit knowledge in OSH MS are contrasted with those of explicit knowledge, but a lack of a model that would describe this process holistically is pointed out. Finally, examples of methods and tools supporting the use of KM in OSH MS are presented and topics of future research aimed at enhancing KM applications in OSH MS are proposed.
自 20 世纪 90 年代以来，职业安全与健康（OSH）管理的系统方法和知识管理（KM）的概念已经独立发展。大多数 KM 模型假设知识分为显性和隐性。隐性知识的作用被强调为企业取得更高绩效的必要条件。本文回顾了有关 KM 在 OSH 中应用的文献。接下来，确定了 OSH 管理系统（OSH MS）的 10 个部分，在这些部分中，隐性知识的创造和转移对预防职业伤害和疾病有重大贡献。比较了隐性知识在 OSH MS 中的作用与显性知识的作用，但指出缺乏一个能够全面描述这一过程的模型。最后，介绍了支持在 OSH MS 中使用 KM 的方法和工具的示例，并提出了旨在增强 OSH MS 中 KM 应用的未来研究主题。
