SAMPLE QUESTION 1: Consistent with previous research on safety climate, process safety, and safety management, this study proposes that top management commitment to safety is positively related to process safety. Vinodkumar and Bhasi (2011) found that top management commitment to safety ranked among the top factors of safety climate to predict safety behavior in both OHSAS 18001- and ISO 9001- certified organizations. Hofmann et al. (2017) report that if employees perceive top management as concerned about and supportive of employees' safety and wellbeing, they often reciprocate by engaging in safe work behavior. Other researchers have found that top management practices encouraging employees to work safely include providing appropriate work equipment, informing employees about hazards, rewarding and applauding safety behaviors, and visiting workplaces to alert workers regarding unsafe work practices always, moreover, employees are likely to behave safely in response to the top management safety practices implemented by an organization (Hofmann et al., 2017; Vinodkumar & Bhasi, 2009; Zohar & Luria, 2010). Supervisor safety practices as a link to safety climate (Huang et al., 2014; Zohar & Luria, 2010). Consistent with Gao, Fan, Wang, Li, and Pei (2019), that the level of direct contact between top management and supervisory-level management determines the demonstration of safety behavior to employees.
