The purpose of this study is to organize the factors and variables that affect workers' anxiety behaviors that contribute to industrial accidents in order to reduce the number of deaths from industrial accidents in Korea, and to compare and analyze the overall relationship of related variables and the size of their influence.
In order to achieve the research objectives, we collect materials through searching and discussing previous research suitable for the research theme set according to the meta-analysis stage and procedure, asking questions about the research theme, and selecting target papers that can be investigated and extracted from previous research. Research quality We proceeded in the order of verification, data coding, data analysis, interpretation of results, and reporting. It was confirmed that there were relatively few papers that specifically presented the correlation of multiple independent factors influencing.
Organize the factors that affect anxious behavior or safety behavior presented in previous studies, and examine workers' "individual factors", "external factors" (organizational regulations), and "external factors" (atmosphere) that affect anxious behavior. classified into A meta-analysis was conducted to confirm the relationship between each factor classified into nine factors and anxiety behavior, and the analysis results are as follows.
Unsafe behavior that contributes to the occurrence of accidents may appear due to individual characteristics such as personality, age, and psychology of individual workers, but external factors other than human factors may be intentional or unintentional. It was insufficient to fully grasp the possibility, and among the factors that influence unsafe behavior, I confirmed the relative magnitude of the effect of each factor.
As a result of the meta-analysis, the effects of external factors (organizational rules) on workers such as organization and safety education were identified as factors that influence the induction of anxious behavior and the induction of safe behavior. The effect size was the largest at 0.617 (95% CI: 0.4729 to 0.7239) ), followed by the individual human factor at 0.4768 (95% CI: 0.3993 to 0.5475), followed by the external factor (climate) at 0.3367. (95% CI: 0.1992-0.4611).
This is done by analyzing the factors that can induce safe behavior of workers and prevent anxiety behavior from being induced, apart from the safety of machinery and equipment or the safe operation of processes, in order to reduce industrial accidents. It was meaningful to confirm more decisive influencing factors by comparatively comparing the magnitude of the effects of individual factors.
The subordinate factors of human factors (individual) include both job stress that has a positive (+) relationship with anxiety behavior and job stress other than job satisfaction that has a negative (-) relationship with anxiety behavior. It was confirmed that some of the sub-factors of human factors (individuals) showed factors that showed conflicting relationships. Among human factors, the magnitude of the effect of affecting anxious behavior as an individual factor was 0.3846 (95% CI: 0.3209-0.4448) for job stress, 0.4060 (95% CI: 0.0679-0.6620) for age, and 0.4060 (95% CI: 0.0679-0.6620). 0.3623 to 0.4291) and there is no big difference. Except for human factors (individuals), external factors (organizational regulations) and external factors (atmosphere) are statistically significant because their confidence intervals do not include 0, and the results of homogeneity verification all appeared to be ≧75%, demonstrating that not only was inter-study variability indeed present, but that the heterogeneity of each effect size was substantial.
As a result of this study, it was found that unsafe behaviors contributing to occupational accidents of workers had the largest effect size due to external factors such as organizational regulations and safety education. Internal factors such as workers' safety awareness, job stress, fatigue, and age, that is, human factors, showed a medium effect size, and job satisfaction showed a large effect size. Finally, among external factors, communication and safety leadership showed medium effect sizes.
Therefore, management elements for controlling, adjusting, or reducing anxious behavior for accident prevention are compliance with safety management regulations and procedures within the organization, effective implementation of safety education, and creation of a climate that prioritizes safety. A focus on accountability and empowerment and organizational factors is effective.
