The development of a new safety culture evaluation index system

Safety culture has become an important issue in safety research and organizational safety management due to its latent implications on safety performance. The main aim of this research is to develop a reliable safety culture evaluation index system based on the Integrated Safety Culture Model (ISCM). Firstly two forms of safety culture evaluation index system were constructed and every index was described. Then the weights of index were determined by using Delphi method and the reliability of the index system was also examined based on data from survey. The results indicated that evaluation index system was effective and applicable and expected to be as the basis of final safety culture quantitative measurement tool.
