The moderating role of safety-specific trust on the relation between safety-specific leadership and safety citizenship behaviors.

TLDR
Results showed that safety-specific trust moderated rather than mediated the effects of safety- Specific transformational leaders on subordinates' behavior, and in conditions of high and moderate safety- specific trust, leaders had a significant effect on subordinates'?
Abstract
The authors examined whether safety-specific trust moderates or mediates the relationship between safety-specific transformational leadership and subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. Data from 139 subordinate-supervisor dyads were collected from the United Kingdom construction industry and analyzed using hierarchical regression models. Results showed that safety-specific trust moderated rather than mediated the effects of safety-specific transformational leaders on subordinates' behavior. Specifically, in conditions of high and moderate safety-specific trust, leaders had a significant effect on subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. However, in conditions of low safety-specific trust, leaders did not significantly influence subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. The implications of these findings for general safety theory and practice are discussed.

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.

TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.
