The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of organizational and personal factors on safety culture. The exploratory factor analysis of the safety culture scale resulted in four factors such as artifacts, safety leadership, personal commitment to safety, and basic assumptions. A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted among labor safety and health managers (LSHMS) of 135 universities and colleges in Taiwan in 2001. The number of respondents was 239, and the response rate was 59.01%. Using multivariate analysis of variance, this study discovered that an organizational LSHM and labor safety and health committee, age, job title, accident experience and safety training experience had statistically and practically significant effects on safety culture. Although location had statistically significant effects on the culture, there was no practical significance. Lastly, the results of this study suggest that the management should be concerned with the important organizational and personal factors in order to create proactive safety culture. |
