摘要：
Psychological climate has shown reliable relations to work outcomes. In the present study focus was placed on the significance of psychological climate for occupational safety. To gain further understanding of how to improve safety in organisations, mechanisms by which psychological climate may influence safety behaviour were investigated. A questionnaire survey was conducted among blue-collar construction workers (n = 189). Data were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM). The results showed that psychological climate has direct and indirect relations to safety behaviour, and safety motivation and safety knowledge were found to be key mediators in explaining these relations.
