Workgroups' propensity with safety rules: the influence of micro-macro organisational factors
Article Abstract:
Micro organisational factors are significant predictors of workgroup's propensity to safety compliance behavior, with the cooperative workgroup-supervisor relationship (COOP) being the most important variable. A participative approach in supervisory management of safety also plays an important role in influencing worker safety compliance. Macro organisational factors, such as senior management leadership and socioeconomic features of firms, fail to determine the propensity of workgroups to safety compliance behavior.
