| A safety issue must never be compromised, as individuals and personnel encounter
risks and dangers every day when operating in facilities such as the military environment.
Based on observations and experience at this battalion on safety behaviour perception, the
study's underlying objectives are to evaluate the safety behaviour profile and identify
relationships between the variables in predicting the safety behaviour of soldiers at the 25th
Battalion Royal Malay Regiment (25 RMR). This will require a sample size of 600 personnel
from officers and other ranks, and data will be gathered through quantitative research. These
outcomes will determine that organizational factors such as job safety, coworker safety, safety
officer, and safety procedures management have profoundly impacted personnel safety
behaviours. Further, the study will unveil that job safety, safety behaviour, and relationships
were significantly lesser for the personnel with their immediate officers’ high safety priorities
compared to the low safety priorities. Improving the safety aspects of officer safety within the
safety programs must be the aim to protect soldiers and ensure their safety. This study aims to
establish the correlation between five significant components of safety culture and the relevant
safety actions of the Malaysian Army personnel on the safety program. This cross-sectional
study was conducted on 365 soldiers at Kem Bentong, Pahang, and the variables of interest
affected safety behaviour and compliance. The results will argue that the safety program,
coworker actions, and management initiatives are essential things that can significantly
influence the compliance level on safety behaviours among soldiers. Conversely, job
characteristics and supervisor safety practices contribute minimally. The work proposed
elevating the safety culture in an Army unit by focusing on these influencers, allocating
additional effort to better safety behaviour, and, subsequently, fewer injury and accident
incidents. These two elements are helpful in monitoring and predicting the conditions affecting
the safety behaviour of soldiers. This study offers a foundation for future research on how
subordinates' and immediate supervisors' safety behaviours and attitudes influence the
connection between WSS factors and safety behaviour. |
