BEYOND SAFETY OUTCOMES: IMPACT OF SAFETY CULTURE ON WORKERS’ ENGAGEMENT WHILE USING SAFETY CLIMATE AS A MEDIATOR

ABSTRACT
 
 Purpose: The study evaluated the mediating role of safety climate for better worker engagement in the construction industry.

Analysis of the impact of military organization's safety culture on safety behavior

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of safety culture in the military organization on safety behavior and to verify the mediating effect of safety leadership in this process. The research subjects collected data by classifying the military class and the military class, and the analysis resulted by applying the cross-over analysis model. As a measuring tool, a safety climate scale was used to measure safety culture, and a scale divided into safety knowledge and safety communication was used to measure safety leadership. As a result of analysis, there was no difference in the safety culture due to the difference between the military rank and military occupational specialty in the military organization. In terms of military rank, most of the commanders showed higher level of safety leadership than soldiers, and there was no difference on safety culture. However, the military occupational specialty was functioning as a variable to control the influence of the military rank on safety climate and safety communication. As a result, the influence of safety culture on safety behavior was significant, and it was verified that safety knowledge and safety communication function as mediaters, and the dual perfect mediation model was verified. Based on these results, a strategic education program or content development point suitable for redinforcing the safety culture of military organizations was presented.

Safety culture analysis based on safety climate factors at production unit of PT. Bakrie Sumatera Plantations, TBK Indonesia

Background: PT. Bakrie Sumatera Plantations Tbk (PT. BSP) was one of the largest rubber factories with environmental concern and a rubber exporter in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyse the assessment and influence of safety culture toward safety climate and company management at the Production Area of PT. BSP. Method: The data were collected by distributing questionnaires referring to Safety Climate Questionnaire to all workers in the production area (159 respondents). The questionnaire consisted of 41 questions/ statements in seven safety climate variables: communications and procedures, work pressure, management commitment, work relationships, training, safety rules, and safety behaviour. Result: Based on the results of the questionnaire showed 93% of all statements in the questionnaire, get a good response from respondents. This result indicates that the safety culture in PT. BSP was good. The correlation analysis showed that safety culture at PT. BSP was influenced by work pressure (r = 0.758), management commitment (r = 0.717) and training (r = 0.617). Balanced work pressure allowed workers to complete their work without haste. This condition was undoubtedly supported by the commitment of proper management that raises workers' confidence in their safety. Besides, through the implementation of training, workers could raise awareness of safety. This situation affected the safety habits that exist in PT. BSP. Nevertheless, the communication and procedures; work relationship; and safety rules variables were not yet compatible with the safety climate. Conclusions: PT. BSP should make improvements by allowing all employees to discuss and advises on occupational health and safety improvement efforts at the factory as well as provide training to their employees equally.

The Indirect Influence of Organizational Safety Climate on Football Players' Concussion Reporting Intentions.

Most of the health interventions designed to increase athletes' reporting of potential concussion symptoms have focused only on the individual athlete. Unfortunately, interventions targeted at athletes' knowledge and understanding of concussion risk has not reliably increased their reporting behavior, leading to increased calls for "changing the culture of concussion reporting." To date, no studies have examined the role of organizational safety climate has on concussion-symptom reporting behavior. We hypothesized that players' perception of organizational safety climate would be indirectly related to their concussion symptom reporting intentions, via the influence of safety culture on supportive social norms and self-efficacy, two well-known predictors of concussion reporting intentions. We used structural equation modeling techniques to create robust latent measures of our model variables and then examined the indirect influence of football program safety climate on football players' symptom reporting intentions. Surveys were completed by NCAA Division I football players (N = 223) before and after the 2017 football season. We tested a confirmatory factor analysis and hypothesized latent variable model with preseason data, made small adjustments to our model (adding correlated error terms), and then confirmed using postseason data. We also examined a competing, alternative model. Results support the indirect and influence of perceived safety climate on concussion reporting intentions primarily via the relationship between safety climate and social norms, and to a lesser extent between safety climate and self-efficacy. Discussion focuses on the importance of considering the addition of interventions aimed at systems-level influences to facilitate supportive social norms and athlete self-efficacy regarding concussion symptom reporting.

Effect of Safety Culture, Safety Performance and Management System on the Food and Beverage Manufacturing Industries in Nigeria

This paper examines the influence of safety culture and safety management system on the safety performance of food and beverage (F&B) manufacturing industries in Lagos state, Nigeria. A survey involving 178 questionnaires from safety managers from the F&B manufacturing industries was conducted. The statistical tool SmartPLS was used for analysis due to its ability and flexibility for examining complex models. The results indicated that the safety culture and safety management system were statistically positively related to safety performance. Besides showing the suitability of SmartPLS in statistical analysis, the results also indicated that the firms that intend to achieve their outlined goals regarding safety could greatly benefit from a positive safety management system and safety culture.

Adverse event reporting in Slovenia - the influence of safety culture, supervisors and communication.

The provision of safe healthcare is considered a priority in European Union (EU) member states. Along with other preventative measures in healthcare, the EU also strives to eliminate the “causes of harm to human health”. The aim of this survey was to determine whether safety culture, supervisors and communication between co-workers influence the number of adverse event reports submitted to the heads of clinical departments and to the management of an institution. This survey is based on cross-sectional analysis. It was carried out in the largest Slovenian university hospital. We received 235 completed questionnaires. Respondents included professionals in the fields of nursingcare, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and radiological technology. Safety culture influences the number of adverse event reports submitted to the head of a clinical department from the organizational point of view. Supervisors and communication between co-workers do not influence the number of adverse event reports. It can be concluded that neither supervisors nor the level of communication between co-workers influence the frequency of adverse event reporting, while safety culture does influence it from an organizational point of view. The presumed factors only partly influence the number of submitted adverse event reports, thus other causes of under-reporting must be sought elsewhere.

Human Factors in Aircraft Accidents: A Holistic Approach to Intervention Strategies

Human error has been implicated in almost 70–80% of civil and military aviation accidents. It appears that attempts to understand human factors in aircraft accidents and apply remedial strategies have been made in isolation in addressing a particular link in the whole process of aircraft accident prevention. The suggested holistic approach to minimize aircraft accidents, aims to provide a composite and macroscopic view of the activities within the aviation environment that can be targeted to produce the desired results. It also provides a microscopic look at possible domains within each link. Targeting one particular aspect or link in the entire process may or may not influence the other components in the loop. Such an approach would address the experience and certainty of safety investigators with regards to contribution of human factors in aircraft accidents and the understanding of temporal relation between various human factors at one end to issues of intervention strategies based on sound human factors principles and a follow up evaluation of the impact of these intervention strategies on the other end. The influence of safety culture in integrating the diverse components of the accident prevention program is highlighted.
