Measuring Influence from Safety Climate to Safety Behavior in Bus Rapid Transit Drivers

摘要

Safety climate and safety behavior has an essential contribution to safety in all forms of the organizations. This research aimed to measure the impact of safety climate on safety behavior on bus rapid transit drivers in Jakarta. Bus rapid transit accident occurred inside and outside the bus lane. The incidence of the accident indicates that the risk is real. The measurement of the safety climate was using Nordic Safety Climate Questionnaire (NOSACQ-50). The NOSACQ-50 was adapted to fit the characteristics of transportation object. The questionnaire was distributed to 100 bus rapid transit drivers in Jakarta. Structural Equation Modelling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method was used to determine the influence safety climate to safety behavior among bus rapid transit drivers. The testing on the outer and inner model was conducted by bootstrapping and blindfolding process using Smart PLS software on the significance level of 0.05. The results of the study are that the workers' safety commitment and safety communication, learning, and trust in co-workers' safety competence had a positive and significant influence on safety behavior.
