Disordinal Interaction Effects of Organizational and Individual Factors on Safety Performance in University Laboratories

本研究旨在探索組織因素及個人因素對安全績效的交互作用。台灣中部四所大學的465位教職員工完成自陳式問卷。研究人員使用二因子多變量變異數分析進行資料分析，結果顯示：(1)規模與事故經驗對安全績效有交互作用；(2)工安委員會與性別對安全績效有交互作用；(3)工安委員會與事故經驗對安全績效有交互作用；(4)地區與事故經驗對安全績效有交互作用。由於這些交互作用都屬於無次序性，安全管理者必須因應不同的組織因素，對不同個人因素的員工，採取改善行動。基於這樣的結果，作者們建議安全管理者應注意這些交互作用情形，以提升安全改善的效能與效率。

This study discusses the interaction effects of organizational factors and individual factors on safety performance. 465 employees from four colleges in central Taiwan completed a self-administered questionnaire. The researchers used a two-way Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) to analyze the data. The researchers found that there are interaction effects on safety performance between 1) size and accident experience; 2) safety committee and gender; 3) safety committee and accident experience; 4) location and accident experience. Because the interaction effects discovered are disordinal, safety managers must take measures to improve safety for different classes of employees in different kinds of organizations. Based on these results, the authors advise safety managers to take note of these interaction effects in order to raise the effectiveness and efficiency of safety improvements.
