Özet:

 

This paper tested a conceptual framework which identifies the perceptions,  adherence to safety and health standards, and behaviours of employees towards  work-related health and safety as correlates of overall employee health and safety  awareness. The study was conducted using data collected from a purposively  selected sample of 165 employees from a multinational steel processing company  based in Gauteng Province, South Africa. The strength of associations between  constructs was tested using Pearson correlations. Predictions between the  dependant and independent constructs were tested using regression analysis.  Correlation analyses showed moderate to strong positive associations between the  constructs. Regression analysis showed that all three independent variables,  namely perceptions, adherence and behaviours of employees towards work-related  safety and health issues significantly predict their overall health and safety  awareness. The study is significant in that its results may be used by managers in  the steel industry in their analyses of the role played by employees in the  diagnosis of work-related health and safety challenges.
