Özet

In recent years, there has been an increased interest in studying the importance of human factors in occupational accidents. This study examines the relationship between safety climate and performance indicators. The study sample consists of 195 employees working in a manufacturing company. The analysis revealed a statistically significant positive relationship between the safety climate and safety behaviours, one of the safety performance indicators. This study's results can guide relevant parties in increasing employees' safety awareness, creating a safe working environment, and preventing occupational accidents.
