Abstract:

Abstract Safety climate influences safety behavior and tends to unsafe behavior. Accidents caused by unsafe behavior are quite high, 80%-85% than unsafe conditions. Previous research has addressed the safety climate to safety behavior by looking at the impact and involvement of individuals and the result is controlled safety climate to increase in safety behavior. Changes in unsafe behavior need to be made by applying intervention methods. Based on this, research is carried out on the influence of safety climate on safety behavior by providing interventions to change behavior. The study was conducted on 198 production workers in manufacturing companies. The safety climate influence analysis was conducted using the NOSACQ-50 questionnaire and multivariate linear regression test, Structural Equation Model (SEM) to see who influenced worker behavior and T-Paired test to see results of the given intervention. Implementation of behavior change is done by intervention. Intervention is provided by installing special safety signs at work and training for workers. The results of the intervention were analyzed using the Critical Behavior Checklist (CBC). The results of the influence test showed that management had a large influence on worker behavior with 5 variables. Testing with SEM showed that there were 3 variables with significant values so that worker behavior was influenced by management opinions and attitudes. The T-Paired test showed that unsafe behavior decreased and safe behavior increased after the intervention was administered. Thus, management has a considerable influence on the formation of worker behavior so management needs to participate in realizing work safety.

Abstract:

The risks faced by the mining industry have always been prominent for every walk of life in China. As the direct cause of accidents, individual unsafe behaviors are closely related to their risk perception. So, it is important to explore the factors affecting miners’ risk perception and analyze the influencing mechanisms between these factors and risk perception. The questionnaire survey method was used to collect the data of risk perception from nearly 400 respondents working in metal mines in China. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze and process collected data. The impact of four factors affecting miners’ risk perception was verified, namely: organizational safety atmosphere, organizational trust, knowledge level, and risk communication. Then, regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and structural equation model analysis were used to examine the effect of the four influencing factors on miners’ risk perception. The four influencing factors all have a positive impact on miners’ risk perception; knowledge level has the largest explained variation of miners’ risk perception, followed by risk communication. Organizational trust and organizational safety atmosphere have an indirect and positive impact on miners’ risk perception intermediated by knowledge level and risk communication. The results offer four important aspects of mine safety management to help miners establish quick and accurate risk perception, thereby reducing unsafe behaviors and avoiding accidents.

Abstract:

The present study assessed the comprehensibility of aviation safety pictorials that compose specific pictograms. A total of 120 individuals were asked to provide detailed responses to each pictorial that comprised a pictogram. The seven categories of pictograms were: (a) take-off, landing, and surface movement; (b) oxygen; (c) in flight; (d) land evacuation; (e) emergency/brace position and floor lighting; (f) water evacuation; and (g) water evacuation — on overwater aircraft. Results indicated that 21 of the 40 pictorials presented were within the acceptable range of the ISO 67% comprehension criterion, whereas only 11 of the 40 pictorials were within the ANSI 85% comprehension criterion. Comprehension of the pictorials comprising the oxygen pictogram was the highest among the seven categories of pictograms tested. However, the pictorials that connoted “move away from the aircraft”, which were found in the land evacuation pictograms, were the least comprehended. Implications for aviation safety card design are discussed.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine leaders’ influence on the safety behaviours of employees and the possible mediating role of perceived organisational support (POS), focussing on transformational and transactional leadership. Design/methodology/approach Data were gathered through a survey from 264 engineers and technicians in the power transmission subsector in Ghana and analysed using structural equation modelling. Findings The analyses revealed that transformational leadership influenced safety behaviours positively while transactional leadership had no significant influence on employees’ safety behaviours. POS also mediated between the leadership styles and safety behaviours. Practical implications Supervisors need to exhibit more transformational leadership behaviours and organisations need to show support for their employees’ wellbeing in order to aid supervisors’ influence on employees’ safety behaviours, especially if the leaders are more transactional in nature. Originality/value The study addresses a dearth in literature and highlights the influences of leadership styles on the safety behaviours of the employees, as well as the importance of the organisation to commit to employees’ support and safety so as to enhance their good perceptions and consequently elicit better performance from them.

Abstract:

Abstract The construction sector is India’s second-largest industry, contributing to the country’s economy and providing many job opportunities. However, construction has been described as a hazardous industry with a high rate of injuries, accidents, and fatalities compared to other sectors worldwide. The “psychological contract of safety (PCS)” is one of the safety climate (SC) variables that influence worker safety behavior (WSB) actions on construction sites to improve safety. This research investigates the influence of SC factors on PCS and PCS on WSB in construction site safety. A quantitative research method has been adopted in this study, and the data is collected from the construction professionals working in South India. Statistical analyses were performed for the collected data; consisted of stepwise regression analysis and structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis to determine the significance of PCS. The findings disclose that in direct effect, four out of six SC factors contribute to enhancing PCS, namely supervisor safety behavior, co-worker safety behavior, worker involvement, and safety system, and it shows that PCS influences WSB. In indirect effect of SC factor on WSB two factors positively influence namely: supervisor safety behavior, co-worker safety behavior and remaining two negatively influences. The outcome of this study helps the construction professionals to improve safety performance by fulfilling their obligations and improving WSB in construction sites.

Abstract:

Public psychological reaction to food safety emergencies is influenced by various factors like the destructive force of events, the influence of rumors, government intervention and public risk response ability, among which the most direct influence to public psychology is disaster information dissemination. This paper investigate the influences that panic growth rate, white noise rumor and government intervention have on public psychology amidst food safety emergencies, and propose the public psychology regulation system to cope with food safety emergencies. The goal of our research is: revealing the mutual inhibition mechanism between mass rationality and mass panic in food safety events. Our research results indicate that with the changes of mass panic growth rate, the public psychology differentiates into two steady states (mass panic and public numbness) and one unsteady state (mass rationality state). Meanwhile, mass panic and public numbness leap to change at the saddle node bifurcation points, and there exists a lagging effect.

Abstract:

Driving is a common and hazardous activity that is a prominent cause of death worldwide. Driver behavior represents a predominant cause, contributing to over 90% of crashes. In this review, I will focus on how driver behavior influences driving safety by describing the types of crashes and their general causes, the driving process, the perceptual and cognitive characteristics of drivers, and driver types and impairments. Evidence from each of these perspectives suggests that breakdowns of a multilevel control process are the fundamental factors that undermine driving safety. Drivers adapt and drive safely in a broad range of situations but fail when expectations are violated or when feedback is inadequate. The review concludes by considering driving safety from a societal risk management perspective.

Abstract:

PurposeSafety management system (SMS) has been widely adopted to explore its influence on safety performance (SP). However, most existing researches recognized SMS as a one-dimension structure and neglected the influences of its subdimensions. Similarly, the impact of safety responsibility (SR) on SP received little attention. This study aims to explore the relationship between subdimensions of SMS and SP, while incorporating the mediating effect of SR.Design/methodology/approachThe research data were gathered from safety management evaluation report of a large real estate enterprise in China during 2010–2017. This paper carries out a series of data analyses to explore the impact of SMS and SR on SP. In order to analyze the synergistic impacts of SMS and SR on SP, path analysis, correlation analysis and mediation analysis were conducted using hypotheses concerning with the main subdimensions.FindingsThe results indicated SMS and SR decreased the project risk level and improved SP of real estate projects. Furthermore, the effect of SR partially mediated the relationship between the SMS and SP.Practical implicationsFindings in this research contribute to improve SP in real estate industry as well as other industries by the active assumption of SR and the successful implementation of SMS.Originality/valueThis research shows the relationship between subdimensions of SMS and SP and the mediating role of SR on SMS–SP relationship to improve SP in real estate industry.

Abstract:

Purpose This paper aims to consider opposing influences on workplace plant and machinery health and safety (PMH&S) innovations, highlight examples of these to model PMH&S innovations’ effectiveness at the workplace, develop guidance for improvement of same and for construction of health and safety (H&S) performance. Design/methodology/approach This study is a qualitative meta-analysis of data distributed among a sample of published research in the field, and it uses inductive reasoning based on informal, qualitative and interpretative analysis. Findings Nearly all PMH&S innovations (positive influences) originate from original equipment manufacturers and specialist companies throughout the supply chain. Negative influences that can counter these potential H&S benefits result mainly from human (in) action(s) at the workplace. These are classified (and analysed) in terms of “error”, “indifference” and “lack of training”. “Tolerant” H&S management is another negative influence found among these classifications. Originality/value The study draws from a targeted meta-sample of research in the field, a model of positive and negative influences on PMH&S innovations that emphasises workers’ (in) action(s).

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a validated food safety whistle-blowing scale and examine how training influences food handlers’ whistle-blowing, the mediating roles of job satisfaction and food safety self-efficacy and the moderating roles of organization type and gender. Design/methodology/approach A sample of 734 food handlers from the food service industry and 306 food handlers from the food processing industry were recruited. A two-step psychometric process was conducted to validate the scale, and a moderated mediation model was used to examine the mechanisms through which food safety training influences whistle-blowing. Findings The results showed that job satisfaction and self-efficacy fully mediated the relationship between training and whistle-blowing. Organization type moderated the first step of the two indirect paths and gender moderated the second step, thereby supporting the mediated-moderated model. Practical implications The results indicate the influence of food safety training programs on whistle-blowing behaviors and suggest other methods of enhancing employee whistle-blowing through human resource management. Originality/value A validated scale is lacking to measure whistle-blowing in the food safety context, and little research has examined the influence of human resource practices on whistle-blowing. This study provides meaningful insights for researchers by developing and validating food safety the whistle-blowing scale, connecting training with whistle-blowing, and provides useful information for practitioners by offering the methods of enhancing whistleblowing in both the food processing and food service industry.

Abstract:

Health and safety issues are critical factors influencing the sustainable development of mega construction projects. The impact of social capitalism on health and safety activities has been widely discussed in sustainability domains; nevertheless, its influence towards workers’ safety behaviors in mega construction projects remains largely unknown. To address this research gap, the current study aims to determine the influence of social capitalism on safety behaviors from a two-fold perspective between project managers and construction workers. An exploratory case study was adopted from a mega construction project in Tianjin, China. The results reveal that (a) the social network between project managers and construction workers manifests itself as close communication and contact, trust and emotional identification, common language, vision, and values; (b) project managers’ management behaviors show stronger influences on construction workers’ safety compliance behaviors, while their leadership behaviors show stronger influences on construction workers’ safety participation behaviors; and (c) the practice of social capitalism promotes enforcement of commands and compulsory norms and plays a positive regulatory role on safety behaviors. These findings provide new insights into the use of social capitalism for improving safety behaviors and ultimately facilitate the attainment of the broader goal of sustainability in mega construction projects.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify individual and contextual influences on in-house safety trainers’ role orientation toward the transfer of training (TT). Design/methodology/approach The authors tested a model where felt-responsibility for TT mediates the influence of job resources (i.e. autonomy, access to resources, access to information and organizational support) on trainers’ definition of their role and where training safety climate exerts a moderator effect. Data were collected from 201 Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) professionals, all in-house safety trainers, of large public and private companies. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypotheses. Findings The model highlighted the mediating influence of felt-responsibility in the interplay between job resources and role orientation, the moderating influence of safety climate on the relationship of autonomy and organizational support on role definition, but not access to resources and access to information on role definition in the TT. Results suggest that how much safety trainers consider supporting the TT as a part of their overall role is affected by autonomy and organizational support through a sense of responsibility regarding training results, and these effects are influenced by the perceived importance of safety training to the organization. Research limitations/implications The study is cross-sectional and used self-reported data, meaning that causal inferences should be carefully drawn. Further studies should explore other sources of influence over felt-responsibility, for example, supervisors’ support for transfer, the relationship between how in-house safety trainers define their role in the transfer process and trainees’ effective application of their new knowledge and skills. Practical implications Companies should overtly signal the importance of safety training to in-house safety trainers because it will elicit, by reciprocity, a greater sense of personal responsibility and increased efforts concerning training success. Originality/value No previous research looked at how in-house trainers define their role in the TT, as well as the individual and contextual factors that influence their efforts toward the efficacy of training.

Abstract:

Although the effect of psychological safety on employee creativity is well documented, the mechanisms that explain that effect remain unclear. This study extends previous research by examining the direct link between psychological safety and employee creativity, and testing the mediating effect of work engagement in this relationship in a Chinese context. We chose 231 participants employed by 4 banking companies located in China to complete a series of self-report questionnaires. Structural equation modeling was used to evaluate the mediation model. The results reveal that psychological safety was a significant antecedent of employee creativity and that work engagement fully mediated the influence of psychological safety on employee creativity. These findings shed light on how psychological safety influences employee creativity. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract Modern American folklore describes independent owner-operator truckers as the last cowboys or frontiersman. If accurate, the individualistic nature of the independent trucker would mitigate the effectiveness of “corporate culture” in modifying behavioral intentions. The modern independent owner-operator exists in a unique environment characterized by high regulation and low supervision, with highly undesirable consequences for bad decisions. This study used owner-operators' perceptions of carrier safety climate and the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen 1991) to understand drivers; intentions to engage in potentially unsafe driving behavior. The relationships were tested with data from nearly 300 owner-operators who conduct national, regional, and local driving operations. Results supported the individualistic nature of owner-operators. Results also indicated that a carrier's use of supportive (versus directive) safety practices, combined with drivers' attitudes towards and perceived behavioral control of unsafe driving, significantly and directly influenced drivers' intentions to commit unsafe driving actions. These key findings inform carriers about adopting more resourceful safety training and awareness programs that provide drivers the necessary tools and skills to drive safely and avoid potential danger outside their control.

Abstract:

Studies of human performance indicate that extraverts show enhanced motivation in relation to reward signals, but not in relation to safety signals under defensive conditions. When it occurs under defensive conditions, enhanced motivation may be related to neuroticism. While extraverts show some attentional skills consistent with frontal dopaminergic facilitation, other frontal capacities may be related to conscientiousness. These findings suggest that dopaminergic influences on response and attentional processes may contribute to additional personality dimensions such as neuroticism and conscientiousness.

Abstract:

Using a multilevel field study with data collected over a 9-month period, we tested how team psychological safety interacts with levels of team relationship conflict to influence an individual’s team identification and satisfaction with their team. We propose that team psychological safety measured early in a team’s time together influences what team members can expect to experience in subsequent team interactions. We use identification and team conflict theory to theorize that through sense-making processes, team members evaluate early experiences with their team relative to initial levels of team psychological safety, which then influences their levels of team identification. When team members experience high levels of team psychological safety initially followed by an increasing trajectory of relationship conflict within the team over time, we predicted and found that individual’s team identification decreased, resulting in lower satisfaction with their team. The theoretical and practical implications for aligning early perceptions of team’s psychological safety with patterns of perceived relationship conflict and its effect on team identification and satisfaction with the team are discussed.

Abstract:

In order to solve low accuracy, human effects and complexity in elevator safety management evaluation, a method based on machine learning was proposed. The method adopts safety checklist to collect data of elevator safety related conditions, comprehensively considering the importance and influence of every factor, which influences the safety on the basis of the safety checklist analysis and fuzzy set. To complete the process of the risk assessment and evaluation, we use machine learning combined with maintenance knowledge of evaluation, which provide users with comprehensive and effective corrective measures and suggestions. Applications show that the method can find potential leak of elevator system management.

Abstract:

A growing body of research has pointed out effective leadership as an important influencing factor for safety performance in various high-risk industrial contexts. However, limited systematic knowledge is available about how leaders can effectively persuade rule compliance, and stimulate actions and participation. Recognizing effective means of influence is of value for safety leadership development and evaluation. This study seeks to empirically investigate leaders’ influence tactics for safety in a maritime context. Qualitative exploration is performed with data being collected through focus group discussions and individual interviews with 41 experienced shipboard leaders from various shipping sectors. Five core influence tactics—coaching, role modeling, pressure, consultation and exchange tactics—appeared to be the shipboard leaders’ effective tactics to influence subordinates’ safety compliance and participation behaviors in ship operations. Safety leadership influences flow from exemplification, expert and personal sources of power, and being pursued through soft and rational influence tactics rather than coercion or constructive inducements. The results indicate that the more relationship-oriented the leaders are, the more effective their safety leadership would be in influencing safety behaviors. The implication of the results for maritime safety leadership research, maritime education and training are discussed.

Abstract:

In order to describe the influential factors of personnel underground behavior safety in metal mines scientifically, pointedly strengthen the safety precautions and decrease the accidents, personnel underground behavior safety characters and influential factors have been analyzed systematically. Furthermore, researches on the quantified degree of influence to personnel underground behavior safety of each factor have been done in this thesis. Complex comprehensive influences of multiple factors including personnel-self, mechanical equipment, production environment and management have been obtained based on safety evaluation system of man-machine-environment, therefore model for evaluating personnel underground safety behavior by grey relevance analysis has been built up to compare and analyze personnel behavior safety quantifiably, so that the primary and secondary factors have been found out finally. The model has been applied to one metal mine to analyze recent human-caused accidents due to human factors which reveals that factors of production environment and management have greater influence, and this conforms to actual production and safety state in our country.

Abstract:

<p>This paper examines the influence of Indonesian national and military organisational culture on the adoption and implementation of the Safety Management System (SMS) that is predominantly based on Western concepts of management. The influence of national culture on a military organisational culture, the perception and behaviour of the military members, and how management handles safety issues in the organisation were investigated and identified. To discover and understand the basic assumptions of a culture that drive people to a particular behaviour, a qualitative research design, encompassing multiple case studies, was adopted for this study. Analysis of the findings shows that the Indonesian military culture has been much influenced by its national culture. Moreover, the unique characteristics of the Indonesian national and military culture have significant influences on military SMS. Harmony, politeness, hierarchical systems, authoritarian structures, the military class system and the ‘can-do’ culture are some of the cultural factors that impede the promotion of safety culture as well as the implementation of the SMS within the Indonesian military organisation. In addition to those cultural factors, the lack of safety education and training has created an environment in which individual safety awareness is disregarded. The results of this study demonstrate that cultural factors are one of the crucial factors that must be integrated into the organisation’s system in order to achieve safety.</p>

Abstract:

Numerical computations using finite difference method and unified strength theory are reported to analyze the slope stability problem. The Factor of safety of plane strain and axisymmetric slopes was calculated by strength reducing method, and the influences of intermediate principal stress on slope stability problem was analyzed. The associative and non-associative flow rule was taking into account in plane strain slope problem analysis. The intermediate principal stress has equivalent influences on slope stability problem under associative and non-associative flow rule. The Factor of safety of plane strain slope is lower than the axisymmetric situation. The influence of intermediate principal stress on slope stability under plane strain condition is heavier than axisymmetry.

Abstract:

This study aims to examine the influence of supportive leadership on occupational stress, safety behaviour and safety compliance of workers working in Indah Water Konsortium Sdn. Bhd. (IWK) Malaysia. Moreover, the study intends to investigate the mediational role of occupational stress and safety behaviour. Supportive leadership negatively influence occupational stress while positively influencing safety behaviour. Occupational stress put a negative effect on safety behaviour and safety compliance, while safety behaviour has a positive effect on safety compliance. Supportive leadership positively influences safety compliance. Occupational stress and safety behaviour partially mediate the relationship between supportive leadership and safety compliance. The outcomes of this study offer significant insights into the management of Indah Water Konsortium Sdn. Bhd. (IWK) to reduce occupational stress, encourage safety behaviour, and improve safety compliance by providing supportive leadership to the workers. Unlike other industries, the sewerage operation industry (in Malaysia) is under an intensive work burden and work pressure that eventually causes occupational stress, lack of safety compliance and ignorance of safety behaviours among workers. The link of supportive leadership with safety compliance is scared with the mediating role of occupational stress and safety behaviour, especially in the sewerage industry particularly in developing countries such as Malaysia.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper provides the empirical basis to support predictions of the Human Factor Engineering (HFE) influences in Human Reliability Analysis (HRA). A few methods were analyzed to identify HFE concepts in approaches of Performance Shaping Factors (PSFs): Technique for Human Error Rate Prediction (THERP), Human Cognitive Reliability (HCR) and Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM), Success Likelihood Index Method (SLIM) Plant Analysis Risk – Human Reliability Analysis (SPAR-H), A Technique for Human Error Rate Prediction (ATHEANA) and Man-Machine-Organization System Analysis (MMOSA). Also, in order to identify other necessary PSFs in HFE, an additional investigation process of human performance (HPIP) in event occurrences was used. Thus, the human error probability could be reduced and its evaluating can give out the information for error detection and recovery. The HFE analysis model developed using BHEP values (maximum and pessimistic) is based on the simplifying assumption that all specific circumstances of HFE characteristics are equal in importance and have the same value of influence on human performance. This model is incorporated into the PSA through the HRA methodology. Finally, a clarification of the relationships between task analysis and the HFE is performed, ie between potential human errors and design requirements.

Abstract:

In order to study the influence of cognitive structure variables on miners’ unsafe behavior intentions, using TPB as the basic theoretical framework, a hypothesis model of miners’ unsafe behavior intentions was constructed including three cognitive structure variables of risk perception, behavior experience, and safety awareness. The statistical results of 236 valid questionnaires were used to verify the authenticity of the model; the structural equation model was used to investigate and reveal the influence path of cognitive structure variables on miners’ unsafe behavior intentions. This study shows that risk perception, behavior experience, and safety awareness have a significant positive impact on miners’ unsafe behavior intentions. Behavior intentions have a guiding effect on behavioral outcomes. By adopting interventions, miners can be guided to reduce unsafe behaviors to avoid production safety accidents.

Abstract:

Due to the significant change in business organizations, scholarly interest has diverted from studying the determinants of financial performance to understanding the environmental activities, sustainability practices, and health and safety management practices. Despite the extensive literature, it is yet to understand either internal or external factors that improve health and safety management practices in SMEs. This research examines the influence of the internal factors—intellectual capital, information technology capabilities (ITC), and entrepreneurial orientation, and the external capabilities—government financial support, institutional pressure, and managerial networking on six health and safety management practices: management commitment, staff training, worker involvement, safety communication and feedback, safety rules and procedures, and safety promotion policies. We researched 410 Pakistani SMEs from the food business industry. The results indicate that intellectual capital significantly improves management commitment, safety communication and feedback, and safety rules and produces; ITC significantly improves management commitment and safety communication and feedback; and entrepreneurial orientation significantly facilitates safety training and worker involvement only. In the external capabilities, government financial support has a significant influence on management commitment, worker involvement, safety rules and policies, and safety promotion policies. Institutional pressure has a significant influence on management commitment, safety training, safety communication, and feedback and safety promotion policies. Managerial networking significantly influences safety training, worker involvement, safety rules and procedures, and safety promotion policies of SMEs. Focusing only on the food industry is the major limitation of this research, this study recommends SMEs to give sufficient attention to their internal and external factors to enhance health and safety management practices. Further implications are discussed.
