          Abstract

          This study aims to investigate employee safety behaviour by relating it to safety leadership, safety communication, safety commitment, and safety climate. This research was conducted at PT GMF AeroAsia Tbk in the Cengkareng home base, and multibase areas of Kalimantan, Bali & Nusa Tenggara, Sumatra, Sulawesi & East, and Java. The study began in early September 2019 until the end of March 2020, using a quantitative and explanatory design approach through testing hypotheses to examine the nature of relationships and influences between variables. The population of 2,400 employees with a sample of 342 respondents. The sample distribution uses proportionate cluster random sampling. Model testing and data processing using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The data was then analysed using AMOS 22 statistical software. Work accidents at the largest MRO (Maintenance Repair and Overhaul) companies were mainly caused by safety behaviour. Test results from several variables of this study can help the managerial team make an effective approach to improve safety behaviour in the workplace.

          Health and safety problems associated with long working hours: a review of the current position.

          The European Community Directive on Working Time, which should have been implemented in member states of the European Community by November 1996, contains several requirements related to working hours, including the right of employees to refuse to work more than 48 hours a week. The United Kingdom government attempted to oppose the Directive, arguing that there is no convincing evidence that hours of work should be limited on health and safety grounds. Much of the research in this area has focused on the problems of shiftworking and previous reviews have therefore tended to emphasise this aspect of working hours. However, there is much less information about the effects of overtime work, which is a central element of the terms of the Directive. This paper reviews the current evidence relating to the potential effects on health and performance of extensions to the normal working day. Several gaps in the literature are identified. Research to date has been restricted to a limited range of health outcomes--namely, mental health and cardiovascular disorders. Other potential effects which are normally associated with stress--for example, gastrointestinal disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, and problems associated with depression of the immune system, have received little attention. Also, there have been few systematic investigations of performance effects, and little consideration of the implications for occupational exposure limits of extensions to the working day. Existing data relate largely to situations where working hours exceed 50 a week and there is a lack of information on hours below this level, which is of direct relevance to the European Community proposal. Finally, it is clear from investigations relating to shiftwork that a range of modifying factors are likely to influence the level and nature of health and performance outcomes. These include the attitudes and motivation of the people concerned, the job requirements, and other aspects of the organisational and cultural climate. It is concluded that there is currently sufficient evidence to raise concerns about the risks to health and safety of long working hours. However, much more work is required to define the level and nature of those risks.

            Transformational leadership and group interaction as climate antecedents: a social network analysis.

            In order to test the social mechanisms through which organizational climate emerges, this article introduces a model that combines transformational leadership and social interaction as antecedents of climate strength (i.e., the degree of within-unit agreement about climate perceptions). Despite their longstanding status as primary variables, both antecedents have received limited empirical research. The sample consisted of 45 platoons of infantry soldiers from 5 different brigades, using safety climate as the exemplar. Results indicate a partially mediated model between transformational leadership and climate strength, with density of group communication network as the mediating variable. In addition, the results showed independent effects for group centralization of the communication and friendship networks, which exerted incremental effects on climate strength over transformational leadership. Whereas centralization of the communication network was found to be negatively related to climate strength, centralization of the friendship network was positively related to it. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
