Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄第一科技大學 === 營建工程研究所 === 102 === The construction industry is a sector with a high rate of occupational accidents. Although management systems and policies for maintaining labor safety have improved significantly, workplace accidents still happen from time to time. Hence, examination of safety management should be focused on assessment of on-site safety climate. Through a review of the literature, this research first proposed 16 factors influencing safety climate that are categorized into three aspects as well as the relations among the factors, which were used for developing an assessment model using the analytic network process method. Next, three experts representing the safety inspection office, project owners, and contractors separately were invited to assess the factors in a questionnaire survey. Their assessments were processed via the model for producing the importance weights of the factors. The results show that the three most important factors are: “supervisors can execute their safety management jobs well”, “supervisors communicate with workers and notify them to follow safety regulations”, and “workers demand their own safety”. The research can be used as a reference by construction practitioners in enhancing workplace safety climate in order to improve safety management.
