TLDR
In this paper, a safety climate measure was distributed to manufacturing employees at the beginning of a behavioral safety initiative and redistributed one year later, and multiple regression analysis demonstrated that perceptions of the importance of safety training were predictive of actual levels of safety behavior.About:

Workplace safety: a meta-analysis of the roles of person and situation factors.
TL;DR: This study quantitatively integrates the safety literature by meta-analytically examining person- and situation-based antecedents of safety performance behaviors and safety outcomes (i.e., accidents and injuries).
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between safety climate and safety performance: a meta-analytic review.
TL;DR: Support was found for the study's hypotheses linking organizational safety climate to employee safety compliance and participation, with the latter demonstrating the stronger relationship; however, the subsequent links to accident involvement were found to be weak, suggesting limited support for a fully mediated model.
Journal ArticleDOI
The nature of safety culture: A survey of the state-of-the-art
TL;DR: A review of the literature on safety culture, placing particular focus on research undertaken from 1998 onwards, can be found in this paper, where safety culture is defined as "the influence of employees' attitudes and behavior in relation to an organization's ongoing health and safety performance".

Safety management practices and safety behaviour: assessing the mediating role of safety knowledge and motivation.
M.N. Vinodkumar,M. Bhasi +1 more
TL;DR: Safety training was identified as the most important safety management practice that predicts safety knowledge, safety motivation, safety compliance and safety participation and path analysis using AMOS-4 software showed that some of the safety management practices have direct and indirect relations with the safety performance components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Safety leadership: A meta-analytic review of transformational and transactional leadership styles as antecedents of safety behaviours
TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical model of safety leadership, which incorporated both transformational and active transactional leadership styles, was tested using meta-analytic path analysis, and the final model showed that transformational leadership had a positive association with both perceived safety climate and safety participation.

Coefficient alpha and the internal structure of tests.
TL;DR: In this paper, a general formula (α) of which a special case is the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of equivalence is shown to be the mean of all split-half coefficients resulting from different splittings of a test, therefore an estimate of the correlation between two random samples of items from a universe of items like those in the test.

The big five personality dimensions and job performance: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relation of the Big Five personality dimensions (extraversion, emotional stability, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience) to three job performance criteria (job proficiency, training proficiency, and personnel data) for five occupational groups (professionals, police, managers, sales, and skilled/semi-skilled).

Safety climate in industrial organizations: theoretical and applied implications.
TL;DR: It was shown that there is an agreement among employees' perceptions regarding safety climate in their company and that the level of this climate is correlated with safety program effectiveness as judged by safety inspectors.
