<br/><br/> ABSTRACT:  	Injuries among children aged 5 years and old and below are very inevitable. Parents of these children are their primary guardians that mostly supervise in their activities throughout the day. The knowledge of the parents regarding safety measures is an important determinant that also tests their practice to the injury prevention. Therefore, this undertaking was done to determine the significant difference between these two factors that contribute to the safety measures of common unintentional injuries such as fall, road traffic, drowning, burn and poisoning among children.  	Specifically, it answered seven questions: (1) profiling of the respondents in terms of age, educational attainment, occupation, economic status, relationship to the child and number of children in their family; (2) determination of the level of knowledge and practice on safety measures of common unintentional injuries among children. Moreover, significant difference of parental level of and practice on knowledge safety measures of common unintentional injuries when grouped according to their profile variables. The findings of this study served as a guide in the development of a community health program which is focused on the common unintentional injuries that has a flow level in terms of knowledge and practice.  	A survey involving 100 respondents was conducted at Barangay 654, 655, 657 and 658 Intramuros, Manila from June 11-19 2015 using a self-made questionnaire validated and Tagalized by certain experts. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, weighted means, ANOVA and Pearson r correlation through SPSS Statistical Package.  	Results showed that the majority of the participants had a very high level of parental knowledge and practices on safety measures of common unintentional injuries among children. Also, the study revealed significant differences in the level of parental knowledge when grouped according to profile variables on occupation with drowning injuries, relation to the child with burn injuries, and number of children with poisoning injuries. In terms of practice there is a perceived significant difference in relation to the profile variables on age regarding road traffic injuries and burn injuries.  	The findings suggest that the respondent's level of knowledge and practice on safety measures of common unintentional injuries can still be substantially be improved. Therefore, the development of a community health program based on the low level of parental knowledge and practice on safety measures was done to hopefully improve their understanding and its application with the ultimate goal of preventing occurrence of common unintentional injuries among children.
