Abstract

The aim of the present research was designing and testing a model of important precedents and outcomes of safety self-regulation at workplace. In this study, safety climate and conscientiousness were considered as precedents and safety performance and job satisfaction as outcomes. The research design was a correlational one, alone, structural equation modeling, and the sample consisted of 300 employees of an industrial company, who were selected by stratified random sampling method. Participants of the study completed Safety Climate Scale, short form of NEO Personality Inventory (NEO), Regulatory Focus at Work Scale, Job Satisfaction Questionnaire and Unsafe Performance Scale. Validity and reliability of all questionnaires were acceptable. Structural equation modeling (SEM), through Amos-21 and SPSS-22 software packages, was used for data analysis. The bootstrap method, using Preacher and Hayes’ Macro program, was used for testing mediation effects. Findings indicated that the model was fitted to the data. Better fit and more meaningful results were obtained by eliminating non-significant paths and linking some errors. The final model was supported. Also the mediating role of self-regulation in relationship between individual antecedent (conscientiousness) and situational one (safety climate), with outcome variables (job satisfaction and safe performance) was confirmed.
