Unsafe acts contribute dominantly to construction accidents, and increasing safety behavior is essential to reduce accidents. Previous research conceptualized safety behavior as an interaction between proximal individual differences (safety knowledge and safety motivation) and distal contextual factors (leadership and safety climate). However, relatively little empirical research has examined t...

This study explores the precursors of employees' safety behaviors based on a dual-process model, which suggests that human behaviors are determined by both controlled and automatic cognitive processes. Employees' responses to a self-reported survey on safety attitudes capture their controlled cognitive process, while the automatic association concerning safety measured by an Implicit Associatio...

Introduction An article in the December 2002 issue of Safety & Health, asserted that behavior-based safety has run its course and is in decline. A construction worker and trades unionist for many years, I witnessed too many accidents resulting from unsafe behavior. Since then I have spent many years researching and implementing behavioral safety in 12 industries on four continents. I was a Prof...

The safety of a pedestrian crossing may depend on infrastructure, vehicular and traffic characteristics. This academic research typically portrays the challenges knowingly caused by vehicles crosswalks in city Kigali. Through carefully observing stopping local drivers events, study aims to objectively evaluate drivers’ questionable behavior against flow parameters. Ten collection sites were ult...
