Zusammenfassung: | This study investigates how organizations can improve employee safety by examining the association Human Resource (HR) safety practices (selection, training, evaluations, compensation) have with employee injuries. Top and operational-level managers at forty-eight organizations completed a survey regarding their safety-related HR practices and provided organizational injury records for the past five years. The findings of this study contribute to the study of safety, by identifying HR safety practices (individual compensation, group compensation, previous work experience, and drug-testing) that have a positive association with reduced organizationallevel injuries. |
