Abstract: In order to promote the application of operations research in the field of safety science, and perfect the safety science discipline system, based on literature of safety science, operations research and system science, a definition was put forward for the safety operations research and its connotations were analyzed. Based on this, the disciplinary foundation of safety operations research was discussed. The major subjects of safety operations research from the theories, academic discipline and applications were built. Based on this, its discipline foundation framework was provided, and its application prospects was analyzed. The results show that the operations research is an interdiscipline subject which keeps solving safety problems in mind, takes the operational research theory as the basic connotation, and solves the safety operations problems by using optimization methods,and that the research has rich contents and wide application prospects.

Key words: safety science, system science, safety operations research, optimization, branches of discipline
