The purposes of the study was to explore the knowledge, attitudes, practices and demands concerning safety and health among four kinds of manufactory labors in Taipei. The PRECEDE Model was used as the study frame. The sample was selected by a cluster method, with the total number of valid questionnaires being 852. The data were collected via interviews conducted during January through March, 1991. The findings indicated that the educational and training contents the interviees demanded most were fire extinguishment, first-aid skills, and the causes, prevention and management of industrial accidents. The safety and health practices that the labors needed to improve included wearing helmet when riding motorcycles, using personal protectors, not using broken tools, and participating safety and health activities. Stepwise regression analyses showed that labors' predisposing, enabling and reinforcing factors explained 17.9% of the variance of their educational demands and 6.5% of their safety and health practices. Recommendations for labors' educational and training strategies were made. Future studies of educational experiments using PRECEDE model as study frame would be important to safety and health educators. |
