Which level of Maslow's hierarchy corresponds to safety needs?

Safety needs come after the basic survival requirements in Maslow's hierarchy. Once physiological needs like food, water, and warmth are met, the next focus is on security and stability—protection from danger, dependable housing, employment, resources, health, and personal safety. That makes the level described by safety needs the correct fit. The other options map to different levels: physiological covers basic bodily needs, Love/Belonging to social connections, and Esteem to respect and self-worth.
