    Dear Colleagues,

     

    I am seeking potential collaborators for a symposium session on safety culture and climate (final title TBD) for the upcoming 2013 SIOP conference. The submission deadline is 9/12.

     

    The main goal of this SIOP session is to gain a better understanding of how organizations can build and manage a culture of safety to create safe work environments and improve safety outcomes.  This session could highlight studies that examine various topics related to safety culture and climate, including

    -          safety culture/climate in general;

    -          organizational culture link to specific safety outcomes;

    -          organizational culture/climate in safety-critical industries (e.g., aviation);

    -          measurement and management of safety culture and climate;

    -          group-level safety culture and climate;

    -          safety leadership and management practices from the culture and climate lens;

    ... and many other interesting topics!

     

    If you have research in this area and would like to participate, or wish to discuss this further, please email me at iko@denisonculture.com.

     

    Thanks and looking forward to connecting with those with mutual research interests!
