An Investigation of Psychological Variables as a Predictor of Accident-involvement in Employees of National Iranian Drilling Company

Pages

  17-24

Abstract

 Background and Objective: Work-related accidents are among the most important hygienic, social, and economic factors in industrial and developing societies. Moreover, the work-related accident is the third cause of mortality in the world. Accordingly, this study aimed to examine Cognitive Failure, Safety Consciousness, and Fatigue as the predictors of work-related accident among the employees of National Iranian Drilling Company in order to suggest the ways to reduce this type of incidents. Materials and Methods: This retrospective correlational research aimed to predict the membership of employees (both injured and healthy ones) through regression analysis. The population of the study consisted of the employees working in the National Iranian Drilling Company. A total of 260 participants were selected through a random sampling method. The variables of the study were measured by Cognitive Failure (Broadbent et al, 1983), Safety Consciousness (Westaby & Lee, 2003), and Fatigue (Chalder et al., 1993) questionnaires. Results: Data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 16). The results showed that cognitive deficits, Safety Consciousness, and Fatigue variables were significant at P<0. 05, P<0. 001, and P=0. 11, respectively. Moreover, all three variables could predict the possibility of accidents in the workplace. Conclusion: Given the obtained results, it is recommended to investigate the effect of variables, such as Cognitive Failure, Safety Consciousness, and Fatigue, among workers to reduce the rate of the accidents in the workplace. Moreover, it is suggested to employ workers with low scores in both Cognitive Failure and Fatigue and high scores in Safety Consciousness in the accident-prone workplace.
