Development of Evaluation Method of Safety Climate in Work Site

There are many factors which specify the place of the work and kind of job. Among these factors, these factors are closely related with safety. "Safety Climate" is consciousness and attitude for these factors. We analyzed the contents of the items used by the past investigations, and conducted an investigation by which the importance of these contents were evaluated. We developed a technique to evaluate the safety climate of the place of work based on these analysis and results of the investigation. Furthermore, we reviewed many past researches and examined the subjects for the safety climate research which should be studied in the future.
