本研究主要目的在瞭解醫療院所護理人員的勞工安全衛生知識、態度與行為，以中部某區域醫院及其盟院和一家公立醫院護理人員為樣本共290人，研究採橫斷性研究及自編問卷，內容包括個人基本資料、勞工安全衛生知識共19題、安全衛生態度共28題與安全衛生行為共26題。結果顯示護理人員在安全衛生各項目，知識平均得分為11.76±2.15分（總分19分），態度平均得分為84.56±6.54分（總分112分），行為平均得分為76.13±8.84分（總分104分）。個人基本資料屬性不同及服務經驗不同在安全衛生知識之得分並未達到統計上之顯著差異；已婚、有子女、具主管經驗、年齡36歲以上及服務年資15年以上者在安全衛生的態度和行為的得分較高，且達統計上之顯著差異，建議未來應加強新進及年輕未婚之護理人員，有關安全衛生之教育訓練，研究結果亦發現，在教育訓練及緊急災害應變演練較不重視且不願參加的比例較高，此情形值的醫療院所重視及進一步探討。

The object of this study is to understand nursing personnel’s knowledge, attitude, and behavior towards labor safety and health. The study was conducted using a selfdesigned questionnaire. The study population consisted of 290 nurses working in a Regional Teaching Hospital and a related public hospital in central Taiwan. The questionnaire included basic personal information, 19 questions on labor safety and health knowledge, 28 questions on the subjects’ attitudes towards safety and health issues and 26 questions on safety and health behavior. In the latter cases, a 4 point scales was used to assess the responses. The result showed that the average score out of 19 for safety and health knowledge was 11.76+2.15, 84.56+6.54 out of 112 for safety and health attitudes and 76.13+8.84 out of 104 for safety and health behavior. There were no statistically significant differences among the hospital nursing personnel in terms of safety and health knowledge. However, it was found that attitudes and behavior towards safety and health showed statistically significant difference among the nursing personnel depending on whether the personnel were married, had children, had administration experience, were aged over 36 years or had more the 15 years nursing experience. The results indicated aggressive cooperation among these nursing groups in terms of safety and health behavior. Based on the attitude and behavior results, it was found that periodic health checkup were the subjects’ greatest concern and involved the most cooperation among the nursing personnel. In contrast, educational training and emergency disaster practice received much less attention and there was an unwillingness to participate. Therefore, the relevant departments need to pay more attention to these latter areas.
