Safety climates are a crucial factor in determining the safety performance of organizations. One of the most influential factors that affect safety climates is safety management, which consists of several aspects. None of the previous research has investigated the relationship between these managerial aspects. Consequently, the main goal of the current research is to apply the DEMATEL technique in order to determine the interrelationships among the managerial aspects that affect safety climates. This study highlights the critical role of management expertise, including technical knowledge and effective leadership, in driving safety cultures. Adherence to safety rules and a strong commitment to these rules across an organization are equally important. Additionally, responding to safety concerns by taking prompt action toward correcting a situation is essential for ensuring the safety of a workplace. When these factors are applied effectively, they play a significant role in preventing injuries, accidents, and risks in the workplace. Recognizing the most important causal factors of the study’s findings, it presents useful information to both policymakers and industrial leaders in ranking their priorities toward improving safety.
