Developing and encouraging a safety culture is an important factor to achieve a safe workplace with low injury rates. Safety climate can be an indicator of the status of an occupational health and safety management system in an organization. It can provide a snapshot of the safety culture. The Thai version of Nordic Occupational Safety Climate Questionnaire is used to evaluate the safety climate in the food manufacturing industry in Songkhla, Thailand. The results can also be used as a guideline in the development and safety management in the future. The response rate was great. The employees who participated were 14.7% male and 85.3% were female. Most subjects were 41-50 years-old and most had a 1- to 5-year working experience. The highest safety climate score of the workers was the dimension of “workers’ trust in the efficacy of safety systems” (3.29) while the lowest score was the dimension of “workers' safety priority and risk non-acceptance” (2.89). For the leaders, the highest safety climate score was the dimension of “workers’ safety commitment” (3.44) and the lowest score was the dimension of “management safety empowerment” (3.10). The factors related to accident occurrence were the differences in the organizations and the mean score of the safety climate dimension of “worker’s safety priority and risk non-acceptance”.

The Impact

At present, close attention is paid to issues related to ensuring occupational health and safety. In order to study the safety culture at industrial enterprises of the CIS, a survey was conducted in March-April 2021, in which experts from leading industrial companies took part. They talked about how their organizations are achieving health and safety goals, and shared ideas on how to achieve the necessary level of leadership commitment and ensure the safety of employees. We present conclusions on the impact of the pandemic on the development of safety culture, on the role of digital technologies in the fight against injuries, as well as on the success of integrating OH&S management processes and the production system of companies.

Despite the enforcement of safety protocols, several workplaces and organizations still face accidents in Malaysia. SOSCO reported >34,000 workplace related accidents in 2012, 983 of which were fatal. Leadership is important when creating a culture that supports and promotes health and safety. Management and Team leaders are vital in inspiring workers to higher levels of safety consciousness and productivity, which means they must personally apply good leadership attributions daily. A ‘Safety Culture’ describes a safety management style in the workplace that reflects attitudes, beliefs, perceptions and values shared by all workers with regard to safety. The objectives of this study include raising the awareness among leaders in the workplace of their role and responsibility in the mitigation and construction of a safety culture that approaches zero incidents in the workplace. The methodology used in this paper includes a qualitative literature research on safety culture and leadership in addition to a quantitative survey that focused on safety culture at two Malaysian universities. This research thus provides an in-depth analysis and platform for organizations to identify areas of weakness and concern and can lead to further research that builds on existing systems to strengthen safety culture awareness and praxis.

Industrial Risk

This article suggests ways to quickly assess the state of labor protection and ecology by calculating a number of indicators of industrial risk based on the information available in the modules for assessing labor protection by indicators of industrial risk. The efficiency of using the software proposed by the authors for the occupational health and safety management system based on a specific task from the modules "Personnel", "Events", "Equipment" and "Ecology", consisting of four main modules, is proved. In addition, this paper compares the matrix methods of risk assessment in the coordinate system "probability of an event or consequences of an event" of prevention and assessment of occupational risks for employees used in domestic and foreign practice in the occupational safety management system.Work on identifying harmful factors of accidents during the extraction, use and transportation of raw materials at industrial enterprises and assessing compliance with the requirements of the standards of the Republic of Kazakhstan should be carried out continuously. The main goal of the labor protection service is to create safe working conditions for employees at industrial enterprises, as well as to prevent occupational diseases of employees. In this regard, a system of accounting, analysis and assessment of the state of labor protection, as well as labor safety management, should work.

Regulatory Instruments

The International Safety Management Code (ISM Code) and the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), 2006 are international regulatory instruments to provide standards for the safe management and operation of ships, protection of marine environment, and setting fort minimum working requirements for the welfare and working conditions of seafarers. For the ISM Code, its effective implementation depends mostly on the competence and continued commitment and motivation of individuals at all levels, and the outcome envisages the enhancement of a safety culture throughout the shipping industry. This paper attempts to establish correlations between the ISM Code and the MLC, 2006 in the provisions on objectives, legislative requirements, Flag State responsibilities, Port State responsibilities, health and safety protection, accident prevention and safety management, regular inspections and analysis of non-conformities and qualifications of seafarers. Based on these, a model to enhance the implementation of the MLC, 2006 by the relevant stakeholders in the maritime sector is developed patterned on the multi-stage model of the workings of the ISM Code developed by Trapford (2009). Although not very exhaustive, the literature reviewed on the experience of the ISM Code and the model proposed could reasonably apply for MLC, 2006 as the notions, goals and objectives of the both codes are anchored on the development of a safety culture – one emphasizing safe management culture and the other safe working conditions and welfare of the seafarers.

Labor protection and industrial safety are of great importance in the production activities of an industrial enterprise. The effective functioning of the occupational health and safety management system reduces the risk of accidents. Analysis of information that characterizes the state of labor protection and industrial safety requires large data processing. This article discusses the implementation of the module on accounting and analyzing the results of control and preventive activities in the field of industrial safety and labor protection. Its practical relevance consists in consolidating data on industrial safety, reducing the time for information processing, and increasing the reliability of information on the state of industrial safety at the enterprise.
