Abstract

This paper, conducted through the literature reviews of safety culture models and safety culture dimensions and the application of the management mechanism of the Taiwan Occupational Safety and Health Management System (TOSHMS), proposes a new Omnidirectional Safety Culture Model (OSCM). Four railway companies in Taiwan served as the questionnaire survey subject, and the safety culture of the current railway industry was profoundly investigated. Furthermore, utilizing AMOS analysis software, the thesis verifies the hypotheses by inspecting the structure model with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).It was indicated in the research that the railway employees’ evaluation of safety culture Significant differences are noted between age and most safety culture dimensions other than “Safety Encouragement and Punishment,” “Performance Measurement,” and “Procurement Management.” In addition, job satisfaction, working environment satisfaction, safety and health policy satisfaction, working efficiency, and possibilities of workplace injuries bear obvious relevance to many safety culture dimensions. The goodness of fit of four safety factors and eighteen safety culture dimensions are confirmed to be acceptable, considering the evaluation result of safety culture structure on all models and synthesizing overall fit indexes. It is ascertained that this model fits better and the result is effective.
