The recent COVID-19 pandemic posed a challenge to employee well-being and will have a lasting impact on how safe employees feel about their work environment. This study aims at examining: (1) the impact of safety perception of employees on their job attitudes; and (2) what factors affect their expectations that their organizations will effectively protect them from potential health threats. Using data from the U.S. Federal Government, this study divided organizational responses to COVID-19 aimed at protecting their employees into the following three types: protecting the employees while working on site, reducing the number of employees working on-site, and providing mental and health assistance. The effects of these organizational responses were analysed separately, and regression analysis was performed with these factors with regards to employees’ safety perception. The results showed that the first group of measures, protecting the employees while they are in the workplace, had generally the most significant influences on employees’ feeling of safety. The attempt to protect those in vulnerable medical conditions was also seen as significant. These findings show that organizations need to protect their employees in the workplaces during a health crisis.

Purpose: This study investigated how choice attributes and safety perception of adult female consumers influence purchase intention.Methods: Data were collected from women aged 20 years and older and analyzed using SPSS WIN 25.0 program. Analyses included frequency, descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation, one-way ANOVA, factor, reliability, principal component, and regression.Results: Among the attributes of personalized cosmetic selection, quality was highly significant for women aged 40 and older. As regards the safety perception of customized cosmetics, the safety of the manufacturing environment was significantly important for women in their 30s and that of the expiration date, and the ingredients were significantly higher for women aged 40 and above. The significance of safety was high in the case of married women and those in the income group above 4 million won. Quality has the greatest positive impact on safety of the manufacturing environment and shelf life, and perceptual value has the greatest positive impact on universal safety. Perceptual value and universal safety had the greatest positive influence on purchasing intention.Conclusion: Through this study, we increase the safety perception of customized cosmetics to consumers who choose customized cosmetics and help them select customized cosmetics according to their selection attributes. For related companies, we not only hope to develop customized cosmetics with proven safety but also build and develop appropriate marketing strategies.

In recent years, with the increasingly popular and openness of Geoparks, Environmental safety has become a major concern for sustainable geo-tourism. It is therefore necessary to conduct an environmental safety performance evaluation for promoting geo-tourism development. In order to identify and figure out the factors influencing the tourists’ environmental safety perception, an index system was established based on six principles of Crime Prevention Through environment design (CPTED) theory. A Questionnaire was adopted for data collection, and the overall evaluation value and concrete index scores at all levels were obtained via the fuzzy comprehensive analysis and Importance-Performance analysis. Empirical results show that: (1) tourists’ perception of environmental safety performance in Shilin Park from high to low was: image and maintenance, Natural Surveillance, territoriality, Access control, Activity support and target hardening; (2) The sub-factors influencing tourists’ safety perception mostly include electronic monitoring device, Lighting system, Public safety management, Road layout, environmental sanitation; While attention should be paid on the following aspects including park service center, inter-personal surveillance, surrounding environment, unobstructed view, parking lot, Signpost, for they are considered as high-importance items with relatively poor performance. Based on the analysis, three optimization measures were proposed, including optimizing the layout and design of each space, strengthening the deterrent force of the park and maintaining a good environmental image. This research provides useful suggestions for Geopark decision-makers on determining the priority of Geopark spatial planning and management, as well as achieving the optimal allocation of resources to promote the sustainable development of Geopark.
