Research Progress on Psychosocial Safety Climate: Origin, Concept, Measurement, and Application | Chapter 3 | Business, Management and Economics: Research Progress Vol. 8

Objective: To understand the research history and current status of psychosocial safety climate (PSC), and to clarify its application value.

Methods: Literature search is used to organize and analyze 29 papers in the past 15 years, elaborating on the research origins, conceptual connotations, main roles, and measurement tools of PSC. On this basis, the practical application is introduced.

Results: There is a moderate positive correlation (r=0.381 to 0.634, all P<0.05) between PSC and various elements of the JD-R model. There is a significant moderate positive correlation (r=0.325 to 0.667, all P<0.05) between PSC and indicators such as occupational embeddedness, safety compliance, job happiness, self-rated health, and job performance of employees. There is a significant moderate negative correlation (r=-0.454 to -0.634, all P<0.05) between PSC and psychological distress, time pressure, and workplace violence of employees.

Conclusion: PSC is an extension of the JD-R model, generated by the comprehensive effects of various elements of the JD-R model, and can predict employees' occupational physical and mental health levels and job performance.
