It is a closed-loop process to establish safety culture. safety culture attitudinal scale could evaluate safety performance of safety culture. Reactive measures point out the weakness within the safety culture, and provide improvable methods. Proactive strategies attempt to setup the goal for improving safety culture. The purpose of this study is to develop valid tool for safety culture. According to the results of focus groups and IAEA ASCOT guideline, all issues separate into ten safety categories. Ten safety categories are “safety awareness”, “safety priority”, “definition of responsibility”, “communication”, “safety performance”, “leadership and supervision ”, “training”, “reward and punishment systems”, “compliance of procedures and safety practices” and “facilities”. According to the ten safety categories and EG&G Idaho Safety Norm Survey, safety culture attitudinal scale is developed. All professional terms are verified by Taipower nuclear experts. The results provide reliability and validity to safety culture attitudinal scale.
