Organizational Factors Affecting Safety Implementation in Food Companies in Thailand

Chinda T.

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics

2014

Vol. 20, No. 2

213--225

Thai food industry employs a massive number of skilled and unskilled workers. This may result in an industry with high incidences and accident rates. To improve safety and reduce the accident figures, this paper investigates factors influencing safety implementation in small, medium, and large food companies in Thailand. Five factors, i.e., management commitment, stakeholders’ role, safety information and communication, supportive environment, and risk, are found important in helping to improve safety implementation. The statistical analyses also reveal that small, medium, and large food companies hold similar opinions on the risk factor, but bear different perceptions on the other 4 factors. It is also found that to improve safety implementation, the perceptions of safety goals, communication, feedback, safety resources, and supervision should be aligned in small, medium, and large companies.

A Safety Assessment Approach Using Safety Enablers and Results

Chinda T.

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics

2012

Vol. 18, No. 3

343--361

Industrial safety is an important issue in Thailand, and attempts have been made to improve safety performance and accident records. This paper examines key criteria influencing safety improvement. Exploratory factor analysis confirms 9 safety criteria, including 5 “enablers” and 4 “results”, with a total of 47 associated attributes. A safety assessment approach is developed, using those 9 key criteria, to measure an organization’s current safety maturity level. Organizations can use the assessment approach to plan its safety improvement, and progress through to higher maturity levels by focusing on the weakest criteria shown in the assessment results with the lowest scores.
