Safety is the condition of being protected from harm or other non-desirable outcomes, often achieved through preventive measures and risk management. It encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including engineering, psychology, and public health, to ensure the well-being of individuals and communities.

Safety

Efficiency is the ability to achieve a desired outcome with the least amount of wasted resources, such as time, energy, or materials. It is a critical factor in both economic systems and engineering processes, driving innovation and competitiveness by maximizing output while minimizing input.

Efficiency

Longevity refers to the length of time that an individual lives, often focusing on extending the healthy and active years of life. It is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors, and is a major focus in fields like gerontology and biogerontology.
