Abstract

Many previous cases have demonstrated that hazardous materials processing industry (HMPI) accidents always result in huge losses and HMPI companies which suffer accidents are difficult to quickly restore. This has demanded an effective way to solve the two problems. Resilience safety culture (RSC) combines conventional safety culture and resilience engineering. It aims at giving an organization the abilities of continually operating or timely recovering during or after a major unexpected event. RSC fits the safety demands of the HMPI well. The present study develops a RSC model for the HMPI. Firstly, through literature review, 12 model elements with 16 hypothesized relationships are developed. These hypothesis are then tested by 618 samples with structural equation modelling. Finally, an HMPI RSC model with 12 elements and 12 relationships is established. Model validity is verified by a comparison study on the proposed model and two existing models with the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process.
